Stars overhead fill the darkened night sky,
tranquil moments brings forth a deep sigh.
A night of splendor here completely alone,
romance building for love we have known.

As we sit here looking out from the shore,
captivated with the moonlight once more.
The sounds as the waters continually flow,
the rhythm of two hearts in perfect tempo.

Sitting by the river so peaceful and serene,
plants abundant with foliage of lush green.
The lovely fragrance of roses fill the night,
while magical feelings fill us with delight.

The desire I see again on your loving face,
holding me close to you in a light embrace.
Anticipating the feel from your sweet kiss,
wanting to treasure a special time like this.

Kissing me so softly and with tender care,
your hand ever so gently touching my hair.
Sensational moments we have anticipated,
for this romantic scene which was created.

We have waited patiently for love tonight,
realizing a dream to hold each other tight.
Two hearts charged by passion and desire,
longing to submit to the glow of loves fire.

Then finally as your moist lips touch mine,
completing this night with pure love divine.
Never wanting the night to come to an end,
staying lonely and trying again to pretend.

For all the moonlit nights we have shared,
the roses you brought, showing you cared.
Giving the inspiration for every thing I do,
the blending...of moonlight, roses and you.
