Sit here and talk to me sweetly, my love, <br />Like the hummingbird talks to the flowers <br />To extract the sweet nectar that he so loves <br />When he visits in the early hours <br /> <br />Hold me tenderly and long, my love, <br />Like the sun caressing the bower, <br />While each tender bud is lovingly warmed <br />'Til it bursts into a full-blown flower <br /> <br />Kiss me strong and deep, my love, <br />It's your lips that bring life to my soul; <br />Like the dew that touches the lips of the rose, <br />And soon after, its beauty unfolds <br /> <br />Always be faithful to me, my love, <br />Like the dove that cherishes its mate; <br />We were destined to play these roles - <br />So it is written in the Book of Fate<br /><br />Lora Colon<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-book-of-fate/
