Icon of Roses

Come, dance with me under the moonlight.
I'll show you prodigious magic
you've only dreamt of.
They'll come, just say the words,
whisper them against
my ear and they're here.

Go ahead, take my hand.
I'll show you your dreams
you've only wished for.
Look into my eyes,
try to see the beyond
the hazel colored depths
into my soul.

Come, dance with me under the moonlight.
I'll show you stars
you've only dreamt of.
Let us dance among them,
allow me to teach you
the sway of engrained grace
riveted within me.

I'll give you a taste
of the dulcet heaven --
the tenebrous heaven invaded
by cabalistic angels
and obscured illusions.

Seat yourself upon the
golden throne with silver roses,
sit where the icon of roses seats herself.
Come, take a peek of the closest shade of
perfection you'll ever see.

Allow your gaze to soak in the sight
of the woman who makes the moonlight.
