Fireflies

Bring me the light of fireflies,
the cobweb's thread, and I
shall fashion a gown of night for you.

Bring me the evening breeze
and I shall set it whispering
all my secrets in your ear.

And bring me your kiss, your draught
of stars, that I might deeply
drink and never thirst till dawn.

All the yearnings and mushy romantic stuff finds its way out late in the evening...I'd better get to bed! :)
