The sumptuous Sun glows softly on me. 

Light and shadows gleam through the rustling leaves, 

dappling my body through gold-etched eaves. 

Like a lover, the sun wraps me in heat, 

penetrating my femininity; 

the sumptuous Sun glows softly on me.  

Sunlight and shadows have a hold on me,  

like love that shines bright, then behind a cloud leaves,  

dappling my body through gold-etched eaves. 

Kissing my suede-skin with a golden greet, 

sensuous and warm before it might fleet, 

the sumptuous Sun glows softly on me. 

Sultry and soothing like a Bossa beat,  

Sun’s pheromones waft in musky yet sweet, 

dappling my body through gold-etched eaves. 

Oh, when the Sun sets, it is bittersweet, 

seductive, but when it hides, my heart grieves; 

the sumptuous sun shines softly on me. 

Before you disappear in dark deceit, 

wrap me in your light and penetrate me, 

glow softly and sumptuously on me;  

dapple my body through the golden eaves.
