In your finery and in your dress,
by the riverside with the sunlight upon your face,
I gaze into your eyes, and I am truly blessed,
for you came to me in the winter,
and you melted my heart like the sun upon the snows,
and you kissed me with a jubilance,
a jubilance that I had never known,
and time stood still,
as the wind through your hair it did blow,
and you smiled at me and as you did,
in your eyes there was a wisdom,
a wisdom that I had never known,
and I revelled in it and in your eyes,
and in your eyes, I felt at home,
for you enveloped me in your arms,
and filled me with your charms,
because you are as warm as the summer sun,
and you talked to me so delicately,
for so compassionate and understanding,
and loving you are to me,
and how much better is life together as one,
for you are intuitive and inquisitive,
and sensitive and you have a sense of fun,
and yes, you overwhelm me with your kindness,
and the kisses from your lips,
and how powerful they are to me,
yes, as powerful as the sea,
and as wonderful and as gentle as can be,
for you are you and I would not change you,
for in your dress and in your finery,
and with us two sat together,
sat with a glass of wine,
and happy in each other’s company,
life is everything that I could wish it to be,
for your beauty,
it lies in your heart and in your mind and in your eyes,
and that is worth more,
more than all the money in the world to me.
