Love’s Sweet Taste

Come take my hand
and share love’s glow with me,
The sweetest taste of life
- is yet to be –

Across the miles,
the years and tears,
Hold me tightly in your heart
to quell your fears

Know that my love is with you
each dark and lonely night,
And feel it’s warmth and glow,
- at each dawning light –

Come share a stolen moment with me
on some distant sunset beach,
And in the velvet darkness of a night,
know the lesson passions teach  

Steal away from others
a time to share with me,
And I’ll share with you love’s flame
- that burns eternally –

Don’t be afraid my love
to reach and touch my hand,
For love’s crimson rose can bloom,
even in shifting sand

And when we’re far apart
I’ll think of you each day,
And know we share life’s treasure
- for that is truly love’s way -
