there will always be that whisper of words place
where you are the first time friend's fingers
touching the brow of an early morning window

we will listen to the texture of old boards
turning gray under sea saliva afternoons
as they weave their moan sounds in slumber

an orphaned wind in mischief shoes dancing
will leave a stranger's prints on our castles
but we will still recline in the sawdust of stones

our forests will be the hillsides of long shadows
but we will not fear their lions of winter
as we draw taut the bows of entwined fingers

and bind them as odin's fetters around our roses

Sometimes, along with the smiles due to your mastery, a tear burns behind the eyelids because you touch so deeply with your beauty.

Love,

Sounds enchanting.

I know of a similiar place, just around the corner of my mind bend.

Where I go when I've heard "mommy" a time too many.

What an absolutely beautiful line.  I love the poem, but that one line is my magic wand.
