The Gods of jolly

Whirling twirling virtues plight,
Dancing blithely in the night.
Whispering touching teasing,
Throwing seeds of dreaming..

Fantasies of blooming flowers,
All with scented magic powers.
Casting phantoms everywhere.
On fire flies that light the air.

Colors streaming in the dreaming
Twisting, laughing in the seeming.
Tossing wishes everywhere,
For bride and groom walking there.

Dancing on a dream of flight.
Into the forever night.
Holding hands into a realm,
Of wonder land and overwhelm.

My the gods have mercy in their jolly
And not turn jolly into folly.

Sy,
My, you do have pleasant dreams
Of pure delight and joy it seems
So much jollier they are than mine
Have you any more of the tasty wine?

Great poem!
I love it!

I sense a note of caution said
Though it could be Justin Mihead

Great poem, Sy! And yes, Dr.Moose, I agree!
(wow...did I do one of those 'read between the lines' thingies?)

Well spoken Sir Sey. A fine read with an interesting twist at the end.

Oh yes my dear the celler is full and
