k.d. lang

a poem for k.d. lang

by Anonymous

it's that time of night
and the wind is to the north
rock me in your siren's voice as I sail forth

sailing
sailing
sailing away from you
away from your enthral

a smile, just your smile
held me captive for a while
a glimpse of Venus on a stage
the voice of love revealed

it's been so long
so very long
since Sappho ruled the waves

dreams of love with a silver edge
dream's of love's recall

what is mythic?
what is true?
what satisfies the craving
that is coursing in our veins?

a radiant star
in a dawning sky
a fearless ingenue
