Touch Magic In The World Tonight

A silence all around descends
As velvet evening turns to night
Asleep are birds, squirrels and mice
At rest are young within their nests

Winds rustle the leaves of the trees
Whispering secrets learned today
When tickling with cool fingers
While blowing off the heat of day

Peacefulness enfolds them at last
Piled logs on the fire crackle
Parting yellow flames while dying
Preparing for what's still to come

Two lovers are watching the show
Tenderly holding each other
Turning to watch starlit heavens
Touch magic in the world tonight

A streak of white crosses the sky
A meteor shower begins
And reflect within lovers eyes
Alighting sweet passions firers

I WILL be smiling.

Well now, you never did stop being the romantic, eh? Nice Karen.

If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane,
I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again.
