Sweet Lady, such words I might sometime, weave here, hold no cloaked device; no honeyed, subterfuge to soft, beguile, and steal your heart away; to ease a pathway to your bed; seducing, couched, to soft entice; unless... of course, you want it so; but, that is one more game to play. A game to play 'twixt you and I, alone... such words you will not find here, upon some page laid forth, before the all-consuming eyes of others... No; such words to whisper thus, remain yet, in my mind, for you, alone; as yet, un-versed; for you, l would not compromise. What you see here... words of the song the hopeless, Lost Romantic sings, of love as it was meant to be; that sweetest hope, each heart holds true. Together, till forever; such a simple hope to which, it clings; and, in its bright-eyed innocence, must always, this sweet dream pursue. And yet, love tends to show its face, when we least expect it to; As yet, the un-versed words lie sleeping... might I waken them... for you? |

A game to play 'twixt you and I, alone... such words you will not find here, upon some page laid forth, before the all-consuming eyes of others... too late for that I think. but very poetic and nicely done good luck [This message has been edited by critical mass (04-05-2009 08:03 AM).] |

I am especially fond of the ending: "love tends to show its face, when we least expect ... ... the un-versed words lie sleeping... might I waken them... for you?" applause for this Romantic 'penning' !! |

Sweet Lady, such words I might sometime, weave here, hold no cloaked device; no honeyed, subterfuge to soft, beguile, and steal your heart away; Secret words, do I have the code? yes, awaken....awaken sleeping words... ~ARH |
