On the shores I rest my eyes,
as night skies look down on me.
Colored stars are gleaming,
speaking sweetly into the wind.
Royal blue winked with a misty shine,
it is I my sistah here to mesmerize your heart, mesmerize your mind.
East of the little dipper stood emerald green all bold. It is I my sistah here to embrace your body and soul.
Clutching the moon top, juicy masculine brown lips all tender and warm. It is I my sistah here blissfully puckered with a gentle kiss into the wild.
Orange danced gracefully and radiantly laughed. It is I my sistah here to brighten your smile, make your eyes shine, spread light into your path.
Deep into the corner, arched purple with tiny wings of silver, sprinkling pearly water on my soul. It is I my sistah protecting your inner peace like precious diamonds in gold.
Arrows with ruby red flames captured the essence of my being. Saving my thoughts, loving my meaning. It is I my sistah your warrior, your guide.
Pink sapphire gems rested on shells beneath and between my toes. You are ever so dazzling, so beautiful to behold. It is I my sistah, shadows in your waves.
On the shores I rested my eyes,
as yellow skies looked down on me,
and where colored stars once gleamed.
Each unseen star spoke sweetly into the wind…
Awaken my sistah, let a new day begin.
