In the sweet April air The afternoon sun kisses our rosy cheeks The playful breeze tickles my face Carrying notes of nostalgia through the air

Curled in your arms My head on your chest I hear the lullaby of your beating heart The constant rhythm of your breathing

You trace a mural on my arm Undefined swirls and invisible patterns As the cheerful reggae you like floats up to the lavender stained sky

For a precious moment Wrapped in the blanket of your love I am a small child once more

And I drift to sleep
