The Soul of a Poet Mayhap it shall come to me, in lightest gay, the heart of a bard to induce my say, through tales of old, of other days, a recitation may come this way Perchance an elegy I shall write the loss of dear ones numerous my lament and grief, both day and night, ‘tho I shan't write o’er the loss of us To honor Theocritus I would pen an idyllic scene to suit the when that life was pure and fine of flair, and I would give it a pastoral air If to be a lyrist of lyre and pen would I gain your heart, and then would you sing fine songs with me and join in an absolute harmony Or in silence of a moment, to muse, and then to be so joyfully enthused by the promise of your words to bring a song to my heart, that we might sing Maybe for me the life of a trouvère and to pen with Parnassian flair thus how to capture one poet’s glance, to pen by chance an Elysian dance To seize the heart of one who would pen, the poet, the bard, a muse, to spend a night, a day, to master the write, this my wish, and my dream held tight For the soul of a poet, I would endure that the heart of a soul I would ensure 04.04.01 Karilea - if I whisper, will you listen? Keeping in mind, I must stand close...and keep my promises... |

Sunshines, ======================================= To seize the heart of one who would pen, the poet, the bard, a muse, to spend a night, a day, to master the write, this my wish, and my dream held tight For the soul of a poet, I would endure that the heart of a soul I would ensure ======================================= And you dear girl are entitled to both your wishes and your dreams. I like feel of the ache in this piece. That die-hard romantic determination always gets me in the end. Peace and hugs,  If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again. |
