31) Empress of the Evening Air

  I lay beneath these golden trees,

  and whisper soft into the breeze,

  you sit upon the coral seat,

  with pearls and golden orchids sweet

  Beneath these mighty boughs that shed

  These fuschia blossoms on your head,

  I sigh as though in sweet relief,

  a dazzling sight beyond belief.

  The beauty of the starlight queen,

  in boundless night forever seen,

  Bright Dream of mine, immortal fair

  Flying undimmed without a care

  Emerging from the distant deep,

  Rising, she set the chained ones free

  And now in silence, fast asleep,

  she glimmers on the moonlit sea.

  I lay beneath these golden boughs

  and smile in silence as I drowse,

  and in my dreams I see her there,

  The empress of the evening air.
