Sonnet - Floating

Adrift upon the scent of thy perfume,
Made weightless on thy voice's subtle lilt,
Thy beauty, mine eyes greedily consume --  
Pull me down to meet thee, if thou wilt.

Bring me close, pull of my kite string, 
Make of me thy wind-dancing balloon,
Thy joylful laugh -- a light, melodic thing, 
My hands and lips, longing for thee, soon.

Thy presence makes of me a fool, to wit,
A dreamer, in the clouds my head e'er dwells,
I fly as eagle, as hummingbird I flit,
Lifted by thine most euphoric spells. 

On second thought, love, join me in my glee, 
Take my hand -- I'll pull thee up to me.
