Ah, my seductive raven
bow before your brethren
and let me take your hand
and lead you to the dance floor
but I must kneel in awe
at your reluctant grace;
the fragrant enchantment
as I draw in a deep breath
I am mesmerized
by the poignant glance
you send my way
and I gaze into your eyes
I am paralyzed
trembling greatly with thought
of you with me walking softly
on the beach after dark
under moonlit sky
and noting the bright sparkle
of stars in constellation
igniting our passionate yearning
for mutual transcendence
