She
is She
is the day that gives me time
To live and linger love my life.
Till nite
comes on with sundown scythe
To end the puzzle pantomime.
She is
a day of love.
She is the bridge on which I wait
To watch the river 'neath
me flow.
All spinning, surging far below
Along the deep and bending straits
She is a bridge of love.
She is the air I breathe entranced
Awake,
asleep in storm or calm.
A wind to wash my lifted palm,
A sky that calls
me out to dance.
She is the air of love.
She is the day thru which
I walk
toward the bridge where she stands.
She is the air I breathe
to sing,
She is a smile without demands.
She is the smile that keeps me
warm
with matchless laughter, eyes ablaze.
A mischief mystery she plays
upon
The flute of early morn.
She is a smile of love.
She is
the air of love
She is the day of love
