Write me a royal-blue parchment poem
|
Draw me a royal-blue lady like me
|
Draw me a smile
|
That's a lot like my own
|
And make my eyes flowers
|
And make my mind see
|
I will weave melodies only for you
|
And color them silver and saffron and blue
|
|
Build me a window to watch everything
|
Leave it unshuttered so nothing slips by
|
No season, no sorrow, no wonderful thing
|
No raspberry, strawberry sun in the sky
|
I will bring music and marsipan bars
|
And live deep inside you
|
Wherever you are
|
|
Teach me the ways of the Gemini twin
|
Show me the love that he says without words
|
Bring me his laughter again and again
|
The silence is singing, the quiet is heard
|
I will find harmonies waiting unsung
|
With two souls to sing them
|
Where once there was one
|
|
