Among The Bowers
AMONG THE BOWERS
When the nascent moon descends over the old, stone towers
Of your castle on the hillside, beyond the emerald glades
A breeze carries the hymn of your name as it softly serenades
The stream that rushes by me where I stand among the bowers.
I will grant you roses from the sea and its scarlet bays, And as a lover's fragrant, eternal souvenir,
Their perfumes shall embrace you, my only love, my dear,
And heaven I will show you, in timeless, mystic ways.
John Lars Zwerenz
