SAFE HABOUR

LIKE STARS COLLIDING ON PASSIONS COURSE,
EYES MEET ACROSS A ROOM AND ALL IS WELL WITH THE WORLD.
TALL AS AN OAK WITH SOUL GENTLE AND SINCERE, SOMEWHERE TO MELT.
I ONLY HOPE IT IS YOU THAT I SEEK,
NO CRUELER BLOW IF YOU GO AWAY COULD BE DEALT.
RELAXED IN YOUR COMPANY OUR CONVERSATION EASILY FLOWS,
AND I FEEL SAFE HABOUR ONCE MORE IN THE ARMS OF THIS PERFECT STRANGER.
THOUGH THE DAYS ARE EARLY, WITH MUCH HOPE I WISH FOR LOVE TO GROW.
YOUNGER IN YEARS THAN I BUT WITH SOUL THAT'S AGED TO MATCH,
I FEEL A SAFETY IN YOUR KEEP AND A SENSE THAT IT'S NOT OUR FIRST TIME TO MEET.
TO SHARE A LIFE WITH SOMEONE, NO GREATER GIFT WE CHOOSE,
A SOUL TO SHARE YOUR EXPERIENCE WITH, A COMPANION TO TRAVERSE LIFE'S STREET.
IF NOTHING COMES OF THIS , KNOW THAT YOU GAVE JOY.
AND FOR A MOMENT IN TIME MY WORLD WAS AS IT'S MEANT TO BE,
SPARKLING LIKE SPINNING WHEEL, A MESMERISING ENCHANTING TOY.
