Through The Night

Sleep through the calm of night
Walking in the dreaming time toward day
Follow the flow of nights silver river
Through the path of stars sigh
Into the night of soft dream
Touch the silken sigh
Caress in mind the dark desire
While you wander through the night

Sleep through the deep of night
Floating on pillows of whispered wishes
Thoughts of what might be, could be
If only this or that
Bolstered by the words of heart
Heard and felt through the soul
Slumber on while the magic
Weaves its path through the night

Sleep through the silent of night
Carried on the breath of hopes dream
The desires that you hope to feel
The trace of heat that lingers on
To spiral through your soul
And pool in wants and needs
As you lie wishing for more
Somewhere in the deep of night

Sleep through the quiet of the night
To rise again in the dawn of shining day

Krissy

And while thy willing soul transpiers
at every pore with instant fires

Krissy,
this is so soft, with undertones of dreaming.
Keth

Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind.  Unknown

Krissy darling daughter mine and what do you call this little effort then Hmmm? What do you call these words that trickle down the page in dreamy haze. I know you were bored so you thought you’d give it a go Mmmm, a likely story. Well, I suppose I could say that it’s okay darling, but you know me and your free verse. I’ll believe Keth when she says it’s soft and dreamy, and simply say ditto darling.

I’m sure it is wonderful love, and what is even more so is you now have your own Internet connection and so don’t have to clog up my computer time. Now THAT makes me as happy as a grig. Speak to you later darling, love you always xxxx
  

Love you cabbages

Breathe through the heat of our desire
Thy coolness and they balm
Let sense be dumb let flesh retire
Speak through the earthquake wind and fire

silently and softly
romantic, like breathing a kiss
there, the thief steals summer warmth
and covers the chill of night
with a blanket of his love


Absolutely and utterly utterly (apologies to all cattle) delightful, insightful,
divine, sublime
and sensually lovely!
Don't spend all those kisses in one place,
KrissyGal!

My covers (and my cats *G*) are probably wishing I'd have such a night... so that they wouldn't end up twisted and/or knocked onto the floor. *G*

I like this, Krissy... the gentle tone is perfect. *S*
