Now she is upon the wane,
I pray I'll never feel the same
then in full--
a dance of tulle-
echoed tides of ocean's pull...
and now again, she's on the wax
the cycle of the hard cold facts.

In the moonlight, shadows dancing,
breezes whisper, trees enchanting
with the rattle of their leaves
a beat of heart left unappeased
becoming rattle ring of death--
how odd that breeze can steal my breath.




" Only those who risk going too far can possibly find out how far one can go."
T.S. Eliot

serenity,
shadows dance away into sunlight when you write.
