Ah Sweet Delight Poem by G. Newton V. Chance

Ah sweet delight, that I should have you here;
Outside the rain, inside glasses of wine,
Well aged and chilled, yet warm, with you so near.
The radio plays soft violins divine,

Soft as your skin, the sofa where we lie,
Inhaling deeply, delicate bouquet,
Red rose, red wine, bodies entwined ask why
This bliss must end and you must go away.

Outside the moon, inside the candlelight,
These moments ours to cherish and to share;
Tomorrow will bring tears of parting plight,
Tonight let's drink the wine of love, my dear.

Let's drink our fill of love and wine and strings;
Ah sweet delight, whate'er the future brings.
