"Before there was us there was you"
Before there was us there was youAnd when you were young all was new.Do you think about that. I still do.Before there was us there was you.***Before there was us there was meAnd when I was young I was free.But I dreamed about you on my knee.Before there was us there was...
"A hymn to the goddess Meretseger"
Upon the rippling desert sandsHow silently she stands,How solemn, how lonely, how sereneAs she has ever been.Daughter of the Sun’s distant youth,In beauty and in truth,What peer has she among the fair,But then, what does she care?At evening, as the...
"Two colours,nothing more, and yet they invoke a world of beauty."
Out of the fields of night,A flower; fragrant, fair and newEmerges in the mystic lightTo blossom blonde on blue.Beneath her eyelids darkness dwells,A restless darkness, deeply warm.Whispering words of love it tellsOf passion's all consuming storm.The sun, above her now...
