I long await the last caress <br />of a sleeping beauty <br />Who's tender heart may call to me <br />From beneath her veil of sleep <br />Awake to the dawn of my love <br />For I will watch over you <br />I will keep your dreams safe <br />Sweet sweet beautiful sleeper <br />Dreaming of sacred things <br />be still to the night's eye. <br />Wander around in your dreamland <br />meet the spirits you've conjured <br />Sing to them in your angelic voice <br />bring forth their wisdom and grace. <br />go to the waters of the great sea <br />and eat the plentyful fish <br />walk in the garden of paradise <br />and pluck the fruit from its trees <br />but above all else <br />leave your heart to me <br />for when you wake <br />I shall be here waiting for you <br />Waiting to hear of your secret journey <br />To laugh, cry, and smile with you <br />For love is always waiting <br />Always ready to show itself <br />And with you and I the puppet masters <br />of our play lets Write the story <br />of the ages in our hearts.<br /><br />Darryl (Daristotle) McMillan<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/beautiful-sleeper/
