The moon is half lit
The air is quiet
Yet softly moving
The water ripples
I hear your sniffle.
Diamonds sparkle
In your reflecting eyes
The statuette glimmers
The music begins.
Romance sprinkles
Stardust without
Reservation.
The gondolier
Gracefully
Plys the water
As generations
Of fathers did
Before Him
A place renowned
Paddles echoes across
The gentle waves.
The air is quiet
Yet softly moving
The water ripples
I hear your sniffle.
Diamonds sparkle
In your reflecting eyes
The statuette glimmers
