THE DAY OF LOVERS

All of my being
Anticipates your arrival,
And I prepare
To welcome you
Into my love's embrace
On the Day of Lovers,
When we shall have
Conquered space and time,
And crossed our rivers
To join in loving.
Oh those rivers
That only recently
Seemed like
Insurmountable barriers,
Do now part for us,
As the waters of the Red Sea
Parted for the Children of Israel,
And miraculously,
We prepare to receive
The gift of G-d
Which is our wonderous loving
Of each other.
And that loving,
On the Day of Lovers,
Shall be as wonderous and awesome
As the heavens
That saw
The thunder and lightning
Upon the Mountain of the L--d!
