Fairies and Moon

Our sweet love materializedas from a wizard's wand,
flowered and took rootbeneath the fairy tale moon,
our coming togetheras magicalas nothing ever could bein our fragmented lives,
you my bejeweled princessbathed in satin and lace,
and me the exiled knightfrom beyond the furthest ocean,
loving each otherwith gentle passionen route from Old Europe,
beyond the grim travailsof the cheap,
hateful world,chanting spellsIn heated whispers,
surrendering to the other'smagical touch,
swayed by night spirits,lavished with love's richness,
holding each other tenderlybeneath the fairy tale moon.
