Embrace me like the petals of a flower at night.
I will sit inside you and listen out
for the morning murmur of bothersome bees.
The soft protection will reassure my fears
until you awake and let go.
I become conscious of the garden and slip away
to let you be beautiful alone.

This is very beautiful . I wonder where? It is so. . so. . delicate- "embrace me like the petals. . " from 1001 nights- just as true. ;) Pia

thanks! Although I do not know that reference to 1001 nights :)

it is simply your lyrical fashion that I compare with 1001 nights. This is as good as your Shipwreck.
