pale ocean of swans down sigh
besnow me with the shimmer of your pearl  
as lacquer of gilt,  give it lough shapes
and water gloss of glaze

lend to me your chalk of raven's feather
your alabaster of  albinic opaque
let orion hunt his serpens and his giants
with his gadgets and gigamaree

while you dance there as my cassiopeia
my virgo under velaless winds
on the waves of your astronomy
be my andromeda in paper chains

let me melt the links that bind
sigh fly my cirrus, my woolpack nimbus
let me be your shepherd king of magi
your keeper of dreams with scepter keys

let your cloud bird children never sleep

you have now left
an image of wanting
haunting

let me see if I might comply
and take you in
to skies that cry

Your vocabulary is amazing in this beauty.  The answer, I'm sure is, certainly or when.  Heat-wave waves across the valley.

Oh yeah...I need some of what youre muse is smoking LOL
You do know how cool this is, right?  
your vocabulary and verbiage floods the mind's eye and feed the senses till they are sated. The word play, alliterations and of course, the imagery in this is most impressive DS
very very cool write...the skies eyes are sighing  



We wish ourselves beautiful ... and cry in the night.
Its not the love you fear ... but the fall from the height.
