Breathtakingly beautiful
Is the glowing of moonflowers
When the night awakes
And fills the earth with darkness
But a greater taker of breaths
Is the beautiful look aglow
On a woman’s face
When her man awakes
During the still of night
And fills her world
With moonlit visions
Of falling forever in love with him
Magical is the way moonflowers
Quickly open up at night
And remain open, until touched
On its dark green leaves
By rays of morning sunshine
But more magical
Is the way a woman's heart
Slowly opens up over time
For her man
And will remain open for him
As long as he shines
His love-light upon her
Tonight I will tie up my woman
With moonflower vines
And hold her captive
While I make captivating love unto her
From the rising of the moon
Until the moment, the flowery vines
She is held captive with
Gives up its glow
To the morning sunshine
