Hidden tryst between heaven and earth



A ballet of ebony over soft soil  
whips fresh air in the forest of old
by the cool lake, under the white moon
 
Ballads of promise lie
between thin breaths.
Lovers move in tandem
coming together as one
by the cool lake, under the white moon
 
Crystal waters cleanse
their feet caked with clay
by the cool lake, under the white moon
Indulge! Indulge! Indulge!
By the cool lake, under the white moon
