Where Willows Weep Beside the lake where waters sleep And dreams of love in silence creep We watch the evening shadows fall Upon the stillness of it all Sweet twilight lays across the west Its veil of dark on hilly crest The night descends, the waters cool And bathe the stars on rippled pool The moon is spread with halo mist And shines where love and dreams exist Beside the lake of waters deep Where lovers kiss and willows weep Elizabeth Santos |

Well I loved the title! A change in scenery has done you well, I won't say this is better than the norm, as all are excellent, but it was so soft, delicate and gentle and in perfect "Santos Rhyme".  ~*~ Carpe' Diem ~*~ |
