AS SERENE AS A SERENADE,
A MAN’S TENDER MANNERED ARTS.

ARE DREAMS SEEN AS MERE NEED?

ERE, A SAD MAN DREAMS A DREAM
AND MEETS A DEAR AND ARDENT MATE.
AS AN EASTERN STAR SEEN
AND EDEN’S STREAM MEANDERS,
A MAN’S DREAMS ARE NEEDS, SEEN.

NEEDS ENTER DREAMS;
NEED MADE MAN, A SEDATE DREAM MASTER,
A DREAM MADE A MATE SEEMED NEAR.

A SERENADE MEANT DEAR.
AT DREAM, A MAN MEETS A MATE,
AND TEARS SEEN SAD ARE AT AN END.

AS ERE A MERE MAN,
AT NEAREST STAR SEEN,
A SAD MAN STARE AT A STAR,
SAD DREAM SEER.

A TENDER TERM,
AN EARNEST DARE,
AS TERMS ARE SET AND SENT,
REDEEM A SAD MAN,
AN EARNEST MAN, A DREAM SEER,
A MAN AT EASE, SERENE AND SEDATE,
STARED AT A NEAREST STAR,

A DEAR’S NAME, NAMED,
A DARE MEANT –
SEND ME A DEAREST-DEAR AND ARDENT MATE!

AMEN.
