Even in the darkness
of a fog come slowly
creeping in
even in the twilight
of a night you welcome
as your friend---
Even as you pay the piper
snatching tongue of twitching viper
even in the darkness greet
sounds of dance
beneath your feet

  begin...

Lessons learned in chiseled wood.
I bit off more than what I should.
How could I know--how I to guess?
that I would be denied the bless
Every footstep I mistook--
I fished for fish-without a hook
all my plans are unexplained
and yet I plan to stay the same
even in the daylight greet
sound of singing
comfort's sane...remains

  the same again...


Now tell me there's a reason
that you denied humanity
tell me love is just a season--
just your mood-a grace for me
tell me every word I wrote
was but a card--make noise in spoke
of a wheel become too real
just tell me now before I choke

  upon refrain...

Serenity~

'even in the darkness greet
sounds of dance
beneath your feet'


You do a dance with words that is beyond compare~

Now you gotta know I loved this one, and these four lines where killers:
"Every footstep I mistook--
I fished for fish-without a hook
all my plans are unexplained
and yet I plan to stay the same"  Wow!
