Him
Oh, my darling morning sun
You smile upon my face
I feel you wanting to say more
My toes look for your grace
I know I didn’t have an ear
The days or two before
But now I’m lying wide awake
And wanting for your lore
Oh, my darling morning sun
So benevolent and consuming
How your breath it frightens me
Setting things for blooming
But the line between love and fear
Is so narrow when you’re near
And the same when you’re afar
My beloved life giving star,
fixed in my imagination.
Oh, my darling morning sun
When you whisper all your secrets
I feel my skin begin to dance
My mind is locked within your trance
Here nothing can harm me
And we laugh together
Knowing we will meet again,
And again.
Oh, my darling morning sun
I know you’ll have to go
The afternoon will beckon you
From hanging here so low
And when you climb your highest
I will watch your greatest work
Safely wrapped in dancing leaves
But in rest I stay alert.
