Song for you

Before you go I’ll write a song,
A love song for you;
With endless skies infinity blue
And a summer breeze to weigh our love;
I’ll write of a loving sweet friend so true.

I’ll star you in beautiful lines
With melodies for smiling eyes,
White birds of truth flying high
We’ll sing of happy days gone by.

Before you go I’ll write a song,
A love song for you;
With starlit nights deep velvet blue
And a soft west wind to weigh our love;
I’ll write of a loving sweet friend so true.

    This is beautiful...and I especially LOVED this stanza:

    I’ll star you in beautiful lines
    With melodies for smiling eyes,
    White birds of truth flying high
    We’ll sing of happy days gone by.

    "Before you go I’ll write a song" - a lovely, lyrical line, that almost begs to be repeated in the final stanza. A wonderful, lyrical piece.
