Solar Surveyor’s Aubade
You, in the light all haloed bright your golden lace-threaded silhouette hold my hand for what comes next for earth, your body turns, and your gaze is gleaming skies when you bounce beams of sunlight winking off your eyes yawning each morning such as this dawning each day dewed in bliss with you in that vomit-inducing romantic way, you’re my undoing you’re all I want, yet I’m off to survey a solar site which couldn’t compare to You, in the light. Aw, babe here’s an Aubade your own dawn serenade before I must go away. You, in the light surrounded ever gradually more by sun's sight of morning’s promise, of goodbye’s kiss of one last chance to tell you this whatever power I may reap from working in solar development whatever difference this makes let the same sunlight stretch and resonate touching the glow that drapes you now so the jewels dripping daylight off your form glimmer more than just my love glint the world more delight You, in the light. Aw, babe here’s an Aubade your own dawn serenade before I must go away.
