Love Takes a Morning Ride

I want to be there with you...reach out to touch your arms
I want to sway to nothing ,but you and all your charms
To ride beside my darlin and chat without a care
Say nothing for the moment but relish all that's there
Your fingers woven to mine... cycling with a smile
Idle chatter, laughter... together mile for mile
Riding bikes on misty roads lined with tiny rocks
Sparkles hitting pavements as love that gently knocks
The wheels that turn round n' round with giggles and a nod
Catch up with me girlfriend, just you and me and God
Hearing tides that wash the shore and bleach the sands with dew
Knowing grays of fogs will paint a canvas for us two
Visions of a morning...two souls that turn their miles
Into future's blessings... kisses sealed with smiles
Happy with these moments, forever in this mist...
Mornings given freely ...licked with heavens kiss
Its okay now to dream of roads to bike with you
Ride a path that's open...love to grasp and woo
For being close to heaven is what you've given me
And promises to keep this day in treasured memory
My dreams are lined with kisses and deep, intense desires
Love's road is gravel, bumpy...this love that's set on fire
The flames grow high, stretch and sway...like hills of marigolds
That go for miles and endless time caressed in hearts' soft folds
Our trip is one ..with each a pair of eyes that seek the other
To hold within loves morning rides to keep on going further
Their is no end just open road for mornings quest of love
For two are held with passions wheel for love holds reigns above
All else.. it seems when love is locked and the other holds the key
This ride of love has begun in hopes and subtle purity.
