Love's Refrain
The summer night in passion drapes the world in it's folds,Crickets, lost in endless love, fiddle their earnest song,
While breezes kissed by jasmine tell of secrets untold.
Bullfrogs, by romance bemused, so freely sing along.
The mayflies now, with passion spent, go to blissfull sleep.
The stars in crystalline light embrace the velvet sky.
Love's crysalis locks the butterflly in golden keep.
The moon cavorts with treetops while the clouds softly sigh.
The fish exchange their kisses while insects on the leaf
Court and mate and celebrate their lifetimes, far too brief.
But here, on this summer's eve my love has been in vain
Because, alas, my only love will love me not again.
Death has wooed and won her to his underground domain.
