Analysis of YOU ARE



You are the stars that shine at night
The sun that warms my skin
The spark that only you ignite
The fire that burns within

You are the dawn of every day
The tip of Cupids dart
You are the glow that lights my way
The arrow to my heart

We stroll among the morning dew
And hark to nature's sounds
Dawn's chorus is for just we two
Our loving knows no bounds
