Stars

Tangerines are hanging heavy, glowing marigolden hues Teasing a half-pale moonAnd I feel a pull to the blue-velvet dark and stars. Pink Magnolia, blushing and coy Savors the sun while she shinesYou've got yours and I've got mineTogether we glide through the blue-velvet dark and starsAll it takes is a little faith, and a lot of heartBack and forth we ply these oarsThey move in time and get entwined Green with joy then gray with sorrowRipened fruit that falls tomorrow Filling us with brillianceBranches are bare with a pulse underneath Flowering slowly insideYour hands are warm and my body is wide To hold all the promise of blue-velvet dark and starsAll it takes is a little faith and a lot of heartSweetheart
