Spring Love
春♡爱
hold my breath, impatiently
anticipating spring
today you are here
I cannot believe my eyes.
You dress the house delicately
your sweet hello from every corner.
Spring day is flushed with love’s warm glow,
our rhythmic dance for two bestows
the air is filled with the scent of flowers.
I’ll never stammer for excuse
to ask for your soft kiss.
Our love means more than this
the shady Japanese cheery, the magnolia’s bloom...
the beauty of a starling’s plume when near you seems to fade.
Your words are all the air I breathe.
In your embrace, I’m whole;
your love’s a thousand spring blooms wreathed
around my yielding soul,
keep breathing of love in spring,
the spring love brings me far far away…
