My life was full of darkness and everything vile.

Intently, everyday, I searched and sought for thee

But I looked in all wrong places and you eluded me.

There were birds, they seemed to resemble you;

All the colours you love: pink, green and blue…

Alas, I called day and night, but they weren’t forthcoming,

And to perch on my bare, dry shoulder they weren’t a-coming.

Dark darkness, sad sorrow and lonely loneliness I ate;

Uncouth emotions tore my heart in shreds, and this my fate;

And as time wore on, I desired to demise, to be late

'Cause I thought thee was not reality but dream.

Ever heard the lark sing its sad serenade at dawn?

This I did too, when all else was lost, at your window…

When no one would give a hearing ear

I crawled on my knees, staring on, with no little fear;

My arms outstretched to you as my sad serenade sang.

And after I was done, you sang your jaunty song aloud,

You laughed hearty and long, and my head in shame I hang.

I knew a bird with so beautiful plumage could never be mine,

There were others bigger and better, and those you laid your eyes upon.

I was nothing save a helpless dreamer to love the divine.

As I turned, walked away, I felt a tingle, tickle and touch;

The softness of your pert feet on my shoulder

As you alighted upon them, my lowly shoulders,

And as you smiled, ever so mighty, ever so broad,

I knew you had loved my soulful serenade;

My heart melted at the heat of your love and bled

‘Cause I had never known nor felt such love;

That day you came into my life, so did sunshine,

It shines in my heart, day by day everyday

And since then, I have never known the great gloomy glumness of darkness.
