I Want

How I'd like to spend a summer day...

I want to wear a summer dress,
All ruffles and ribbons,
With lace brushing your arm,
As I sashay by.

I want a nap in your hammock,
All breezes and birdsong,
My head on your shoulder,
My hand on your thigh.

I want to glide through your garden,
All fragrance and flowers,
Smell the honeysuckle.
See the first firefly.

I want a warm, sultry evening,
All starlight and moonbeams,
A soft kiss from your lips,
That look in your eye.

I want to dance nude in your arms,
All music and magic,
The slow touch of our hands,
Our words just a sigh.

I want to sink in the cool grass,
All silk pearls and dewdrops,
While you’re deep inside me,
This night in July.
