Amore (Love)

Once upon a bedtime story, came there forth a dove from glory
Like a spirit or an essence floating down from heaven's shore
While I watched with good intention, I could not help here but mention
What a glorious intervention was this angel's named Amore
What a glimpse unto forever had this angel named Amore
     For she touched me evermore.

Yes, her hair was soft as sunrise and the haze that shone from her eyes
Was as clear as crystal waters cross a vast plutonic floor
Should I walk the streets made golden or observe all grace beholden
No new love should there be molten from the love of sweet Amore
Love that reaches deep inside me is my love for sweet Amore
     For her love is evermore.

Then the dove that came entreating flew away in sudden fleeting
Thus enticed my heart to beating -- beating out the name, "Amore"
Just "Amore" the last word spoken. Just "Amore" the final token
From my heart that now rests broken. Broken more than was before
In a maze of hidden sorrows, broken more than was before
     'Twas my heart for evermore.

Low, I looked for her returning with a deep and heartfelt yearning
And as if my soul was burning, ventured onward to implore
Through the darkness, through the ages, through the books of endless pages
Through life's ups and downs and stages --holding fast to my Amore--
Through the flames that life beguiled me, held I fast to my Amore
     Who lives on for evermore.
