She is beautiful make no mistake Her face and brain framed with softest hair Her mouth defines a thirst no one can slake Defining love and pain within her stare For in this woman, beauty's but a part And her gracious form but a carriage for Her wit and substance and are just a start I'm just at her knees where I implore I fear she, like a comet in the sky Shall race away in orbit from my sight Leaving me a heart I know would die If fear's reality turns to be right Only time could tell then should she come Return to me out of heaven where she's from Great souls have wills; feeble ones have only wishes. ~ Chinese Proverb ~ |

Mr. Yeats! Who IS this light of love of which you fondly speak this light that you clearly, dearly seek? How happy you are when you gesture forth with words of this treasure! Well done! Enjoyed! |

Bill--Could she but fly through heavens gate and change the turn of time and fate then I'm sure no door could keep her from the raptured heart that she has won. Beautifully written expression of love! |

Karilea- if Byron had not already said it I'd tell you she walks in beauty like the night and that swlfsame night hides her identity ~G~ Thank you Paula - curious you say that - I found her in a 'lost & found' (kidding) Thank you Kit - I feel I am the fortunate one- Thank you JW- You know - I think she does - (least I hope so) Thanks Martie- Someone must have told you -how much I treasure poetic responses - yours is so beautiful it deseves to stand on its own |
