"IN A GARDEN OF LIGHT"

In a Garden of Light
Your eyes silently shine like precious jewel moons
Swimmingly in a sky sea of love

In a Garden of Light
My song joyously unfolds like a sun shadow dancing
Meanderingly on a cool stream of summer

In a Garden of Light
Our love is the earth from which we arise
The water that awakens our seed
The sweet fruit born on branchings of timelessness and easing

In a Garden of Light
We sing brightly to each other of sacred growing wonders
Like two song sparrows calling amongst hidden trees
Breathlessly remembering, that we truly are but One
