In The Still Of The Night In the quiet still of the night When your dreams take flight Just reach out your hand Brush off the sleeping sand And let your spirit flow Slow Fly high on the breath of a sigh In the quiet of the night In the quiet still of the dark To your dreams listen take hark Just hear what they say to you Watch its beauty running through And let your mind go Flow Soar high on the back of a sigh In the quiet of the dark In the quiet still of your sleep Watch your dreams softly creep Just follow them into the night Frolic in their smoky misty sight And let yourself be free Be Float high on the back of a sigh In the quiet of your sleep Marsha Take back the hope you gave,- I claim Only a memory of the same Robert Browning |

Marsha...still stretching and reaching with grace ... the repetative lines worked well in this and the unique presentation added to its softness and flow well done take care jm If my slight Muse do please these curious days ... The pain be mine ... but thine shall be the praise. ~Shakespeare~ |

Kari love, is this a stretch, dear heart? No I know it was just me playing about with shapes again. Besides you know you do it better, but I am still trying for less is more. Thank you for you always Take care love Majestic Marsha  Vandana, thank you truly, this really was just a little play for me. Take care Mushy AD dear heart, it was me thinking about sleep didn't I say I was awfully idle! Thank you truly love, I don't deserve your praise but I will accept it with smiles. Take care love as always Mushy Lary, thank you kindly, it was supposed to be the stuff of dreams. And I thank you kindly, Take care love Mushy Rich love, thank you muchly it really is just me having a little play about with shapes. And I'm pleased you think it's beautiful. Take care love Mushy Janet Marie love, thank you ruly, but really not a real stretch, to get me to stretch Kari has to threaten me with time limits, or to withdraw her beams. If one day I can ever write even a fraction as well as you do I shall be content. Although I say it's not for my writing I stay here, it's because I get to read the very best of the best. Thank you truly Take care love Mushy Paula dear heart, you are just such a darling, it was supposed to feel like a dream, lightly resting on you. Thank you muchly Take care love as always Mushy Take back the hope you gave,- I claim Only a memory of the same Robert Browning |
