*-Journey of Night-* Eyes of green made up so fine Mane of gold with tendrils of curl Adorned her form wearing tan leather skirt Boots to knee atop stockings of net Out the door she attempts to explore The journey of night begins to unfold.. At side of bar on stool she is perched Not noticing the eyes in dark that lurk Martini in hand she gazes around Yet still sees only disguise in man Will this night bring her delight When paths shall merge with one in dark Reaching beneath beauty seen Unveiling heart of lonely that weeps Alas, midnight hour has struck Her night out now comes to close Reaching for her purse on lap A matchbox slips and lands on floor There in front as she sways down A gentle man brushed by her hand Eyes of brown meet eyes of green Shyingly she smiles and thanks him Places matchbox in her purse She walks to door peaking at side of view Seeing his glance of her exiting form Her heart possessing excited beat Perhaps once again they shall meet.

Coco, I look forward to you poetry, as it gives glimpes of mystery. This piece was no exception and I enjoyed it very much. Be well Kethry "It is the image in the mind that links us to lost treasures; but it is the loss that shapes the image, gathers the flowers weaves the garland."- |

CoCo ~ I know this game...though I haven't played it in years, as I moved to a rather remote area of N Cal it brought back fun memeories of the hunt...lol funny though, my eyes are green and I use to drink martinis...
