That magic night,
In bridal white,
Atop a wild unsaddled steed drawn with a charcoal’s heart,
That gentle might,
An eye so bright,
Across a path of cobweb bricks, a master spider’s art,
The moon alight,
The sun your right,
You came my stay and flowed to ground, a snowflake’s breath apart,
That deep delight,
A graceful sprite,
Your lips my ear did softly touch, your pledge me to impart.
“My master king,
This golden ring,
My soul with yours entwines,
My pledge for life,
Your sacred wife,
With blood on flesh it signs.
Thru mother earth,
Thru children’s birth,
Thru seasons we’ll grow strong,
Till fire’s glow,
Till heart’s last throe,
Till end, I thee belong.
On wind’s soft blow,
We’ll sail, we’ll flow,
A father’s soft embrace,
And water cools,
In icy pools,
The body’s heat to chase.”
“My lady queen,
Your soul so clean,
My thread of life I pledge,
To weave in mine,
Your love divine,
And you to guard and fledge.
Thru love and bliss,
Thru war and peace,
The iron core to steel,
To trust and dare,
To give and share,
Your pain and hurt to heal.
With honest faith,
Your thirst I’ll sate,
And keep you to my right,
My crown and throne,
My sceptre’s stone,
My hand, my arm, my might.”
That magic night,
In bridal white,
I carried you the hundred stairs up to the bridal room,
That gentle might,
An eye so bright,
The moonlight beams your only dress, a flower deep in bloom,
The moon alight,
The sun your right,
The passion rivers teeming wild at love’s fervid perfume,
That deep delight,
A graceful sprite,
Your sleeping sigh my heart, my life, my kingdom to illume.
