Close me in behind the blinds
strike the chords and pull the strings
slide the silk between the folds
slipping softly under down
turn the dimmer switch to low
let the light play on my dreams
creased between the shadows
tap dancing on the wall
slow the rhythm of my heart beat
easy in the tempo~

(smiles) Oh Lori, this is lovely, sweet friend, your words always dance and sway with grace, yay! (kiss on cheek) This brought a smile to my face and melody to my mind, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Lori, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Funny thing, Bluesy

This reads a bit like a witch I know. You been reading too much of her? Or finding a new voice in your writes.

This is really very good. I like the new "musicality"

Thank you all so much for reading my sleepy dream.  And no wranx, I do not aspire to be a witch, I wouldn't know how to pull it off if I tried.  Pick a card, any card and I'll get it wrong every time.     

Warm hugs all around~
