A Pennyworth

I’ve built a living empathy
In the awesome of the stark
A touch of naïve fantasy
That lights a candle in the dark

It right’s a small periphery
To turn the dark a glowing gray
And there I dine on finery
To play a phantom knight my way

It is a life within a life
A splendor in a wile of seem
With music played a private fife
That dances to a private dream

It is the magic of the mind
A counter balance to the raw
A field of green we all would find
A temporary safety door

It is our heaven here on earth
And I have bought a pennyworth.

Good morning, Sir William. Ye "shake" thy sonneteering pen with panache and it be sharper than a "speare".

Praise be thine for ye light up our lives with thy lit wick!

Ye be as a pearl in a life within our lives and I admire thy splendor of wily seem.

The magic of thy mind parlays into fifing music and dreams divine in fields of green.

~ Of this heaven, here on earth
Ye hath claim beyond pennyworth.

Angel hugs 'n kisses,
EA
