A mirage of you beckons me and I thirst
to drink deep from your cup and to share
the pool of paradise with you my love and feel
cool waters caress our burning desire and wash
over us in ecstasy as the vision of love becomes
so clear, flooding this land so barren without you
As the river of love sweeps me away, I am flowing
Into the ocean of your love upon a tide of high
Drift with me onto distant golden shores
Into warmth of the softest sand under our toes
Lay with me in shade of palms in the island sun
Until it sets and we become one and into slumber
we will fall under the smiling moon that has shared
Our nights of longing for this perfect starlit dream
Tia Maria
