Amorous Envelope
Who’d have thought from one naked kiss
From the dead of night I’d awake to this
Messages aren't usually sealed in an amorous way
Loving and endearing, wow, what more can I say
Your inscriptive words went beyond my dream
You rapped me in Love’s blanketed theme, serene
Thus, you kissed winter’s chill from my tomb
I was enraptured, set free from isolated gloom
Sealed with a kiss, this bliss shall always be
Words of the Light, and love, enclosed for me to see
Take this Rose of my heart, if Father-god so allows
You championed my heart, still there are tests to bow
With this note I bequeath my fond, and thankful, adieu
For this heart-filled envelope I will faithfully love-you
Nor have I thought such living-dreams where meant to be
Til your amorous, luminous, thoughts were revealed to me
