Maple Avenue (Alternate Version)

Maple Avenue
 
Make love to me on Maple Avenue
In one of the houses on the coastline.
Come savor me before high tide is through
Like I’m the last glass of sweet summer wine.
When morning comes to cradle us with light
Won’t you whisk me to South Cove and row us?
Charm me till I burst and cradle me tight
Forsaking all above and below us.
I know you’re out there, Levi’d Romeo -
I may be patient, but don’t wait too long.
What’s the use of parting or sweet sorrow
If we have the notes of a lovers’ song?
We’ll sing so loud the memory of trees
Will pay us reverence with each passing breeze.
