BALLAD FOR MY BELOVED

If I were a god in the skies above

Swaying and gliding among the clouds

Looking down on the world full of love

From dawn to dusk, its beauty unearthed

Only one would capture my thoughts

Only one would hold my gaze

I would spy on your every move

Follow your every step from my birds view

Through the marvelous heels and valleys

Across the ponds, and luscious greenery

Watch you dance with pure glee and joy

Enjoying as you made nature feel coy

I would drift down in your day dreams,

Sweep you away to the magical heavens

Stroll with thee by the silent streams

Strum music from strings unwoven

Fill you with tranquility unequaled

And set you back in serenity so civil

Stealing away before you noticed

I’d lie back among the clouds,

Morph them in strange shapes

And savor the moment in childish glee

As you settled back in your bed

Secretly aware, I would comfort you

And lull you to sleep with a kiss

If I were a god in the skies above,

But I am the man you gave your heart

The heart I promised to keep,

The love I promised to cherish

The one I promised to shower in sparks

The one I will forever let you smile,

My beloved
