New Dawn

The Fire in my heart,
The Fire in my heart,
Glowing in the night,
Glowing in the night,
My heart in the night,
In the fire glowing,

Beauty in the falling sky,
Beauty in the falling sky,
A sleepy fading moon ,
A sleepy fading moon ,
A Beauty falling sleepy,
Moon in the fading sky,

Our earth of gentle love,
Our earth of gentle love,
Her whisper upon the wind,
Her whisper upon the wind,
Whisper of our gentle earth,
Her love upon the wind,

The wind upon the earth,  
A whisper of her beauty,
In the fading night,
The glowing moon falling,
In our sleepy gentle love,
Skyfire in my heart.


To Rhonda

Marshalzu,

I think this is really so beautifully written!! I like the style in which it is written, the way you arrange the words in each stanza to arrive at the last 2 lines in the stanza... BRILLIANT!!

wow, this is an incredible piece, definitely an addition to my library.  this is a difficult style to master, and its hard to make the end result come out as beautifully as this did.  keep posting your work and ill keep reading it.

Sometimes, the things that go unsaid are the only things worth hearing.

*applauds*  I love paradelles!  I think I would love them more if I could write them... *shrug*  But Marie + format = bad things.

I really enjoyed this.  Beautiful work, Zu.. I am truly impressed.  And I hope she enjoyed this, because if anyone wrote something like this for me, I would certainly melt in their hands.

Well done!

OK I'm definitely no expert on how these should be written but the first two stanzas, line 5 and 6 read really awkwardly. They don't follow on from eachother and make the piece distracting.
The third is really good. I liked that one.
The final stanza is alright. Last line is fantastic but yeah, you get what I mean.

Although you're a great writer, this wasn't up to your usual standard. It lacked a lot of things that make your pieces so good. Oh well, practice makes perfect.

Hope you didn't mind the honesty. I'm in one of those moods.

This was awesome. So interesting to read.  It said so much with so little, know what I mean. Excellent work.
