The crystal chandeliers of starry night
Cast their silver rays and crown our heads
With ageless tint; our hearts immersed in sight
Of one another, as the spell of love spreads
With each gliding step as each is taken;
And freely they flow, as the perfect words  
Of a Master’s poem now long forsaken
That lift from a page as black, unshackled birds...
But the lovers’ masks that we both wear
Suit well this Lady and this Knight in love;
For the bond through time and space we share
Does not yield to physics of the stars above:
But holds our hands in a direct link of hearts
And its own passage to the heavens charts.

My fellow Canadian, that "Midnight Dance" was pure magic!

"The crystal chandeliers of starry night
Cast their silver rays and crown our heads"

~ Yes, indeed! Pure magic!

Love & Starlight,

Thank you so much for the words of appreciation, Lady Earth Angel.

For the magic of love casts its tints into ordinary things...

P.S. So that's where the "Mystic shores of forevermore" are.....

Your voice, so soft, sweet, I hear, speaking out to me from these pages. Whispering inside my ear, a knight of love, through the ages.

Noble and honest, kind and true,fate has brought me to you, and now my heart is renewed, and I feel so alive~

It is close to midnight as I type, getting ready to put on my red cloak and meet you at our tree~

Going to dreamland to me you there~

So sweet and romantic you are, I am in awe of you, the very presence of you, Your poetry is perfection!

Thank you!

I always admire this style of poetry, mainly because it's beautiful, but also because I could never write this way

not effectively anyhow, without it sounding cheesy

C oursing are Thy  words
A s they wrap 'round to protect with warmth this
S he, whom does not wish
T o be known as waiting~~always waiting
L ifted by dreams unshackled
E ngaged in a battle of wits
G uarded by arms that protect and shield whence
U nto Thee, does a heart open
A nd freely flow this bond
R endered helpless when lips touch so
D etermined~~is She
