The moon flies among silvered rains And weeps with wisdom's grace Among haunting breaths of melody One can see forever's face. Dewy thoughts adorn the sky And cling to eyes of gold Upon her lips of crystal dreams Are truths of life once told. Angel wings now sprayed with soot Still shine with dignity Among the leaves her voice is heard Lingering upon the breeze. Shadowy visions draped in light Dance within her soul And with a whisper of her heart Cherished words are known. "In a moment lies eternity And in a kiss resides forever Dawn will emerge within your life If love is held together." 'Neath the silvered rains she soars The angel known as destiny Giving grace to those in need And allowing us to truly see. *Krista Knutson* "Thought is real, physical is the illusion..." Albert from ~What Dreams May Come~ |

*Moment of awestruck wonder and then wild cheering* LOL, I loved this one! I don't even know what to say... I absolutely adored lines like, "Upon her lips of crystal dreams," "Dewy thoughts adorn the sky," "Among haunting breaths of melody," and "The moon flies among silvered rains." And of course some of the greatest lines I've ever read... "In a moment lies eternity And in a kiss resides forever Dawn will emerge within your life If love is held together." Abrahm Simons "Flew too high and burnt the wing Lost my faith in everything" - Trent Reznor, "Somewhat Damaged" |

my my my... you are the princess of pefect rhyme and meter... and the queen of imagery... and your vocabulary is astonishing... *bowing before the queen* Im not worthy  this is exquisite K, truly. you have such a gift. take care, jm I think I could need - this in my life I think I'm just scared - that I know too much I can't relate and that's a problem I'm feeling ... If you're gone - maybe it's time to go home There's an awful lot of breathing room But I can hardly move If you're gone - baby you need to come home cuz there's a little bit of something me... In everything in you. ~MB20~ "What the caterpillar calls the end ... The world calls a butterfly" ~Lao Tze Tao~ ~Butterflies are meant to be free~ |

These words are as lucid and elegant as a midsummers night dream Angel wings now sprayed with soot Still shine with dignity Among the leaves her voice is heard Lingering upon the breeze. Shadowy visions draped in light Dance within her soul And with a whisper of her heart Cherished words are known. wonderful. ------------------------ "I've been too honest with myself I should have lied like everybody else"-Richey Edwards "Take nothing but pictures.

This is so beautiful, it *tinkles* when you read it, like windchimes! WOW again!
