ONE DAY

One day those eyes that shine ‘cross skies

Will come to life and gleam for me,

And then I will redeem this heart -

By your soul set free.

One day I’ll kiss that mouth of smiles,

Its lipstick brink blushed warm and wet,

With longing for all the coming

Times we won’t forget.

One day I’ll take that gentle hand

To curl it tight within my own,

And then adorn your bridal bough

With a diamond throne.

One day that lissome smooth body

Will purr and moan entwined with mine.

Then we will sleep our little death

Tangled in love’s vine.
