Sky Dancers most of the neighbors don’t like you how you hang on the fence gossiping I’m not like them and don’t mind it at all I have heard your secrets long after the darkness’s curtain heavily has fallen high above the leaves a moonlight serenade I hear your songs it is a warbling lullaby between some distant clock a timeless ritual of a lovers struggle looking for another to warm your cold nest we both have a secret dream that edges above distance and one day you will find me underneath the velvet night and I too shall sing like the sky dancers "I'm so hard to handle |

I loved the title too, but if you are referring to crows, or woodpeckers, I am unfortunately with your neighbours on this one. You clever thing you - skydancers indeed! |

Creative imagery, as always. Chuckling at Mysteria's comment on sky-dancing birds. |

we both have a secret dream that edges above distance and one day you will find me underneath the velvet night and I too shall sing like the sky dancers Oh, my friend... these lines are so beautiful... so touching. I can't wait to hear your song! *S* |

Helen - these words are so romantic to me, I'm glad you found them to write in this writing... a lovers struggle looking for another to warm your cold nest we both have a secret dream that edges above distance and one day you will find me underneath the velvet night and I too shall sing like the sky dancers Always secret dreams to meet under a velvet night...
