canopy

the sky so blue the
sea so green
that part of you
that feels what's seen

the sky so fair
the land at peace
you've found your share of love
at least, that's true

the skies still bright
all through the night
so is your smile, my love
I look awhile above and see

The sky's not dark at all
Despite the roll of thunderclouds
Above the grassy knoll
our love will last, withal

the skies ablaze with passion
at last, the sky's afire with
love, it stays with us wherever
we go ' for more we cannot ask
