in the land of yore

Toward his glance she tossed a strand
Of her golden hair -
Unbeknownst to him he caught
Her gossamer snare.

The single strand around his heart
Strung as a golden chain;
Tangled in her satin web
Struggle he may in vain.

But why travail, beguiled lad -
Why resist the spell?
When in her heart there you will find
Love's eternal well.

So bare your soul and dive within
Freely there to rove;
No greater wonder in the world
Than a woman's love.

How brief is every port of fate,
How fleeting every chance -
Lives are spun from threads of mist;
Born from a random glance.

Troubador~
There is such soft beauty in your thoughts~

Touching ... feeling~

After reading today's poem, I wanted to read more, so here I am enjoying this one as well!
This should go back to the top!
