How I Wish (Sonnet #97) Poem by Tina Baaklini

How I wish to waltz in your tender arms
On a special night, under the moonlight
And to be lost in your eyes or wit's charm
Whatever, we'll breathe an air of delight

In your tender arms, I'll go anywhere
As a butterfly swaying with the breeze
Cradled by the sunbeam with love and care
Kissing red roses' petals in the fields

But nothing compares to your soul's embrace
And the peace you fill me when I feel weak
And the flood of your tenderness, my grace
And my silence that you read without I speak

As long as in your heart you carry me
I'm at the top of the world, eternally
