No Joy in Mudville |

No Joy in Mudville Awoke this morning, overcome Sadness filled the air. And watered down my landscaping, Leaving feelings bare. Those muddied thoughts kept me in check, No hopefulness in sight. Sighing, deeply, wishing for A Knight filled want of night. Borrowing a few words sweet My mind stirs, once again. "A thousand kisses", echo each Wondering "if" and "when". There is no joy in Mudville, Remembering I, those words. The loneliness, I feel this day, From emptiness I heard. My inner soul is wanting out, To feel again, embrace. The sorrow's in containment now, A suffering, needs erase. Await I will, 'til darkness falls To feel your breath cascade. "If" only in my dreams of heart "When" loving never fades. Invaded mind, my body, soul In corner painted tight, Protected I, then feel caressed when Knight shows in my night. To last me through the moonheld sky That reigns from up above "If" and "When" the tears have dried No scars... just joy of love. ~Wynter... a friendly challenge of title with Kethry to see, compare... my morning began quite dismal with a Knight of dreams to only share "The worst prison would be a closed heart". |

Oh Wynter this is so good. I wish I'd read this first, then I could have adapted mine so I had a chance of "taking the title" write on Kethry Those of us who refuse to risk and grow get swallowed up by life. Patty Hansen. |

Sighing, deeply, wishing for A Knight filled want of night. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Well done. WELL done. Live for love. Without love, you don't live. |
