The Vigil of my Heart Oh how the heart does yearn more sweetly When we are apart Your figure looms in nearness To the vigil of my heart Your thoughts have come in petal dreams In fragrace that is drawn From honeysuckle’s sugar drops That waken with the dawn The twilight skies announce the lovely Light of your desires And veil my night with little stars Of passion’s sparkling fires If you would love me from afar If you will wait the hours Please send your love in ways that I can breath your sweetest flowers Then kiss the distance of the wind Embrace the tolling chime Let all your wishes come upon the fragile wings of time And I will gather in my eyes the beauty of the day And in my heart the gentle words That softly come my way Elizabeth Santos [This message has been edited by Elizabeth Santos (04-24-2002 09:08 AM).] |

Your thoughts have come in petal dreams In fragrace that is drawn From honeysuckle's sugar drops That waken with the dawn The twilight skies announce the lovely Light of your desires And veil my night with little stars Of passion's sparkling fires =================================== Cadence kissed and absolutely delightful to read aloud and to take in to the senses. A beautiful poetic sigh  wonderful romantic writing Liz  Now for me some words come easy |

Then kiss the distance of the wind Embrace the tolling chime Let all your wishes come upon the fragile wings of time Wonderful words you have written! Chris Life is not measured by breaths you take, but by moments that take your breath away. |
