ASLEEP BY THE GATES

ASLEEP BY THE GLORIOUS GATES OF LIGHT,

LAYING BEFORE ME, LOVE,LIKE AN EMPTY LAND

OF DREAMS,

THAT SHINES BRIGHT AND HIGH, IN ALL MY BLUE

AN ETHEREAL SKY.



I WOULD COME TO YOU, UPON THE DARK HILLS OF

NIGHT,

AND FEEL YOUR PROFOUND REPOSE, LAYING AGAIN

THERE AT YOUR SIDE.



AND WHEN THE FEVERISH RAYS OF THE SUNSET

DISSAPEARS,

ABOVE THE FRESH RUFFLES OF YOUR COOL SURF,

DIFUSSES THE EXOTIC PERFUMES, OF YOUR LOVE DELIGHTS.



AND LIKE A TOUCH OF BUTTERFLIES, YOU CARESS ALL MY

HAPPY DAYS,

AGELESS SPRINGS FLOWING FROM THE ANCIENT LOOMS

OF TIME.



SPOILED PIECES OF ETERNAL DREAMS,COME TO MY HEAD

TO LIVE,

AND CLEAR AND SWEET IS THE NIGHLY AIR,WITH YOU

IN MY MAD AND NAKED FOREVER, SUMMER NIGHTS!
