A Rainbow Of Wishes

By Emile Pinet

With the innocence of youth
you protect my heart from harm.
And restore my faith in truth,
with intoxicating charm.

You arouse my heart in ways
that inspire passion to start.
And fan flames into a blaze
deep within my burning heart.

Your sweet honey-dipped kisses
taste like sugar on my lips.
And a rainbow of wishes
harbors fantasy dream ships.

Happiness guided by love
found its way back to my heart.
And lifted me high above
the doubts tearing it apart.

Knowing you’ll always be there
comforts both body and soul.
And the closeness that we share
makes me feel wanted and whole.
