Autumn by Alphonse Mucha
A Stolen Moment
In fluttering light
cascading down
among the windswept
leaves
I saw you there, in
white silk wrap
Coiled close around
your softness
In the sunlight's glow
of an orange ember
Sunbeams caressing your
dark brown hair
And silver rays of
winter's pure light
A halo about your
beautiful presence
In that light of a
stolen moment
You came into my heart
and took me,
forever
Leading me into the
warmth of your own thoughts
And we were like one
with the wind howling
Crying out for our union
And the haunting song
of a thousand journeys
Bringing us together, again
Our souls intermingled
in the purity of
a lovers
calling
