An Early Prayer

Dust of thousand faces form up the clay
millions of blossom become wonder of the day
The kiss of you is fresh like flowers in May
the warmth of your lips like fire burns me away
In the universe once I will become dust and clay
the bird of time sings for me this rhythm night and day
The blowing of wind disperse the seeds into an open field
the dusk of dawn asks for blessing when to pray
The sweet blossoms remind me of an early day
the roses are standing row by row waiting for you to play
Open the door walk to the garden. It is a beautiful day
whisper a love song for me while you stay
I revive an old desire in me while you are away
the flame of passion keeps me young even when my hair turns gray
The essence of my soul integrated with you like an ocean and bay
the desert and mountains can'’t make my heart sway
When the birds fly, the wind plays
beneath the message is my little love a while longer stay
The dream of you takes me to places I have never been
walking with the caravan of love makes my heart obey
The delightful river is floating lightly with the wind
the desirous heart wants you, my passion for you can’t be delay...
