Holy City

A city that's holy.
I think I was told
Of a number of names
As the list did unfold.
Mecca, Tibet,
Somewhere in Japan
The list seems to grow
With each woman and man.
A pilgrimage needed?
For some it is true
A trip down the Nile
In a boat would do
Closer and closer
They get to their God.
Entry to heaven
By gesture or nod.
There is only one place
That beckons to me.
That promises heaven
And pleasures that be.
For it's there I meet you
Every year for one night.
A room with a view
Of eternal delight.
