Are turquoise eyes in the night an illusion? dancing to the songs of a nightingale draped in willowy shadows of seclusion Lavender fog becomes a twilight sail like a wave beckoning to the pharos sandy fingers touching shoals like Braille Once a Queen in the arms of a pharaoh as the Nile drifts within melodic rhyme Egyptian winds stunningly dance their balero She remembers once upon a time within the beaded fringes of the moon the adoration of his love sublime Turquoise eyes within a Persian cocoon she dances alone to a nightingales tune "To love and be loved is to feel the sun from both sides." ~ David Viscott [This message has been edited by Victoria (01-04-2002 11:39 AM).] |

You captured me with the title as turquoise is my favorite color but the beauty of this poem is what held my attention. Stunning. I love it. **big hugs**  Love I leave with you whether it is in your life now or yet the essense of your dreams. [This message has been edited by Startime (01-04-2002 12:26 AM).] |

I love the imagery you use in your poetry. The words are so in tune with my own thoughts .....God, I can't seem to put a thought together today. I hate this feeling. thanks for this. My perception of truth will somehow never quite be the same..and so I write. |
