• I dare to bring you back to sunny skies
    In summer, bright and free from dark or cold,
    To lose myself inside your beryl eyes
    Is tantalizing more than precious gold.

    But oh, that this could be more than mere words,
    Though sweet they are, and sweeter still to dream
    Of warmth and Love alight on wings of birds,
    I long now for us to enact that scene.

    My lover, you will leave me soon, I fear,
    But I know that you'll always with me stay,
    And Winter's freezing, frosty kiss I'll bear,
    'Til you return and melt it all away.

    And when you hold me, dreams are naught to me,
    For there's no other place I wish to be.
