Softly through the window
rays of moonbeams touch my face
Shadowed by the memories of
another time
another
place
~
In the moonlight
shadows dancing
reminding me of love
once glancing
back at me through
anothers eyes
lit with promise
and surprise
~
Love
that made my
heart dance freely
now merely shadows
dancing in the moonlight
~
In
the moonlight
shadows dancing
touching shadows
of another time
with promises
of love
~

Soft, lilting, and sweetly sad.  Well done.

--Kess


 Full fathom five thy father lies,
Of his bones are coral made,
Those are pearls that were his eyes;
Nothing of him that doth fade
But doth suffer a sea-change
Into something rich and strange...

Denise-
Lovely
challenge
to work from.
That Hoot girl
sure knows how to
inspire us all.
Thanks for
liking.

Skyfyre-
Lilting is
my favorite
word. Thanks
for applying it
to this piece.
It sure was
such a fun
piece to
do.

DarkAngel-

I don't
know about
amazing ...
but perhaps I'm
AMAZED that we
have such a
beautiful
place to
share

Martie-

And the
shadows
just keep
dancing just
beyond our reach.
Closer, closer
they come
Got to
have
one.

Oh, Munda
Hope the trip was
a pleasant one. Memories
take us where they want us
to be.  Thank you for the
softness of your reply.
I'm so glad that it
presented you with
a reflective
moment.

Mike-
How eloquent thy praise.
Lady *demurely* bows
Thank you, sir.

Rosemary-
You know what your words mean to me.

While I always 'colored outside the lines'
I want my words to speak first and then
the presentation to  WOW you !

I am constantly inspired to jump with
abandon at formatting after having seen
the lovely work you and Dale present on
your pages.  Thank you, Rosemary for the
sincerity of your comments.

Elizabeth, my friend -
Thanks, darling.  It's just nice knowing
you are out there reading.
Love to you and to Tony.

Marge,
I have read several of your writing`s and one thought keep`s coming to mind.
You have had a bad experience with love?
Im sorry if Im out of line with this comment.
It`s just that I read your work and from that alone I can see that your a sweet,loving,kind hearted person and I just can`t imagine anyone ever breaking the heart of one that has so much to offer.
If so,you just point him out and I`ll go smack`m for you.
Very well written Marge
I look forward to the next one

You've written a wonderfully reflective, sentimental poem...took me back to the beginnings of a love, sweet and new. Thank you, Marge.
