2. "Surrender "







Surrender
 

Music sweet as love overflows
From my love- laden secret hours
Musical tones passionately sooth her soul
Sensuous resonance whispers from my heart
Beside the gentle, graceful, stream
Does the melody arouse some hidden desire?
Flowing peacefully with the river’s song?
 

Let the pearl grey sky capture
The sweetest song escaping lips into nature’s ear
Above, the moon rains her beams down
Like flowing notes of radiance
Harmonious, delightful sounds,
As sad and deep as loves hidden buried treasures
 

Surrender to love’s song as the tides of love flood
The barren tide pools of lonely hearts
Whatever past tides ebbed away from the love of life?
Let the flooding currents fill the heart
So full of love, that one last drop, one last tear
of joyful surrender, overfills it.
 

Let love’s blossoms swell
Into rain awakened flowers
The infancy of splendor awaits
The love song’s intimate accompaniment,
An inspiring dream’s transcendence
Let the sound of music touch our moonlit slumber
As we embrace in the gentle stillness
of our merciful surrender…
