Analysis of Love Plea
Amanda East 1976 (Ogden)
Feel my voice call gently, like a Peaceful Dove.
Sparks of life will enter Time to gather Love.
My love, come lay upon my pale naked chest,
We are freed from Eden’s green and idled rest.
Let not the dark powers burn your passion dead,
Black and white must caress the deep waters red.
I will be your lover, friend, and servant too,
This gift I grant freely in hopes of knowing you.
Love’s touch can soothe every proud and shameful fear;
I shall hold you tender, warm, and ever dear.
Black and White must caress the deep waters red.
Let not the dark powers burn your passion dead.
We are freed from Eden’s green and idled rest;
My love, come lay upon my pale naked chest
Sparks of Life will enter Time to gather Love.
Feel my voice call gently, like a Peaceful Dove.
