The First Time I Ever Saw Your Face

I've loved you since
              I saw  the moon in your eyes ...
              When I realized that
              Your mouth was a rose ...
              That your hair had
              all pure black tenderness of the night ...
              and that  your skin  had 
              the dazzling whiteness of cotton field...
              When I felt the loving
              perfume of your lap ...!
