Hold me tight. Don’t allow the stars take me away from you.

I want no stars no moon no sun. I want you.

Those seem distant and cold while your body and heart are warm.

I can feel you. I can see them. And that’s plenty enough.

Don’t want the cloak of Night take me away from you.

Want to be close to you and hear the beating of your heart.

Along with the sound of the cricket, the wolf and the owl.

Oh, sweet love. Hold me tight, don’t let me go for an instant.

Let us have the window wide open and have the moon come in and be

our silvering light. At the turning off of the light.

Sweet love, kiss me good night.
