Call Me Darling

Call Me Darling

Between the time
When the sun slips behind the mountain
Summer spectrum of rose hues
Before the dew wets the grass
Iridescent droplets mirror perfection
As the morning dove sings
Out the siren’s song, love of the sun

Call Me Darling

Between the time
When the still waters of your mind
Reflect the grandeur of the wilderness
The brier edged heart
Not tempered by reason
Heat lightening on a clear starlight night
Fierce warrior’s passion holding tight

Call Me Darling

Between the time
When the fear of love
Trips you up
As you are running
From that familiar unknown
The tether of control frayed
Yet, a deep profound yearning

Call Me Darling
