~~ MIRAGE ~~
Miltonic Sonnet

Mystic sands, dance in the midnight breeze
sensuous  thoughts, flow like a waterfall
haunting echoes, of a coyotes call
wishing on a star, thoughts begin to tease
moonlight and whispers, begin to appease
your voice in the wind, leaves me enthrall
whispers of the desert, my heart is in awe
song  of the ravens and whip-poor-wils please
beneath an umbrella of diamonds
reflection of you haunts the tawny sands
the mirage of you, stalks the desert sun
love in the morning, holding my hand
although the prickly pear castus i shun
our love blooms, in this Apache plume land

Victoria...
This is absolutely beautiful! And it reminds me of the warmth of the Southwestern desert, which I do appreciate right now!!  


Follow your dream!
