The up-lifting spirit
Let me lift you up
unto the heights of happiness
and stay there with you up in heaven
just to warble in our triumph
of our high victorious love,
the ruler of the seventh heaven
and the angel wings of our beings
having reached our harps already
by the splendid fugues of our songs.
Thus let me keep you there
in constant thrilling vertigo
like one great ballet dancer
lifting up her swan in one resplendent leap
to never put her down again.
Thus will and do I love you
indefatigably and outrageously,
incredibly and carefully
to never let you down again.
