Your Essence pervades my clandestine avow
Transcending the universe, ages, and now
Enveloping me with ethereal arms

Beheld from afar that one self-same star
My breath is entranced by mere visage of you,
Enrapturing eyes of impaling blue

Poetic mellifluence hearkens to me
As unto Bach's rhythmical rhapsody,
Symphonious dulcets of sweet violins.

Your delicate scent alights with the winds.
I feel your caress in the evening rains
Your touch yet my reverie, still remains

Your Essence enlightens the darkness of night
Awakening senses enthralled to new height
Your Essence embraces my innermost soul.

Beautiful....Very touching.

 MAY THE ROAD RISE TO MEET YOU,
MAY THE WIND BE ALWAYS AT YOUR BACK
MAY THE SUN SHINE UPON YOUR FACE
THE RAINS FALL SOFT UPON YOUR FIELDS
AND, UNTIL WE MEET AGAIN,
MAY GOD HOLD YOU IN THE PALM OF HIS HAND

Irish Blessing
