The Sonnet of the Rose

Now, my Love let night but softly fall Upon the place where we have chose to rest And with my head laid gently on your breast We'll gather dreams from places great and small We'll gather dreams while nightingales shall sing A lullabye composed for just our ears While shafts of moonlight washed by willow's tears Create upon our hair an angel's ring Then, my Love, we both shall sleep so warm Till morning doves do softly call the dawn And with the summer sunrise sweet alarm We'll wake with wild abandon like the fawn Our love is like the rose, with grace and charm Come breathe the rose 'till all our breath is gone
