immortal

how beautiful a man when he's down on one knee
how beautiful her eyes closed to the sound of the sea
how beautiful her smile when she awakens to the sun
how beautiful that band of gold, the truth she's the one
how beautiful a woman when his question is blessed
how beautiful the moment when the answer is “yes”

and all the stars seem to dance around them that night
as they embrace and kiss, an expression of light
as the earth sounds approval in the bells through the trees
a subtle peeling of petals which perfume the breeze

how he sees all beauty in hers
how she sees all beauty in his

how bountiful continents offer honeymoons to them
how bountiful the floriades, all the triumphant stems
how bountiful fern forests for their joyful, playful running
how bountiful from mountains, bays and valleys stunning
how bountiful rivers of gemstones, for which they can swim
how bountiful glades of butterfly wings, they both feel within

when all the world seems to dance for them at night
they know their day will come, every esplanade alight
in a celebration of life, sweet wine, through a maple blossom portal
here come two people in love, together, immortal
