For my love on Valentine`s day

 

RENDEZVOUS

May the lamp of the full moon
Light your sleeping tonight,
High in a steep sky
Astral and bright.

And the wing of a lone bird,
Arching over the west,
Measure with slow beat
The rise and the fall of your breast.

Then come! On a dream-drift,
Pass Venus! Pass Mars!
I`ll be waiting near Saturn
`Neath a silence of stars.

◄ On the day the first Gulf War ended

Harry,make sure it IS a lone bird,and not a LOAN bird.You wouldn't want the man from Satsuma knocking on your door when your 'segments'(pardon?)run out


Any chance of giving me your address in case your loved one hits a rocket jam while passing Venus?

Because my girly gang and I are having our knocking shop refurbed....
