There we lurked, soft and precious,
In Albion’s sweet, scented skies,
And the lilies larked by the meadowside,
And the fire danced in your eyes.
As the brush fell cold with moonlight,
And the reedy nests were filled,
Whilst minnows darted through the rocks,
All silver, slick and gilled,
I reckoned it was too far tonight,
I reckoned the night was young,
That the sprinkles of dawn were yet,
And the nightingale had sung.
But you breathed a breath of calmness,
And the stars fell down from above,
Your lips were soft and chapped,
And the moonbeams laughed with love.
