Common Plea As daylight, so you are the sun Limitless, dimension radiant by one As strong an influence as air The sustenance of rain to bear My words succumb, the weightless of intensity To dedicate the volume nor the density As crossed my mind, and stuttered then Stay, stay near and warm these hours when And yet, I would not trim these wings Say these things too heavy to be heard We speak without the mutter of a single word You know, and though it seems too good A common thing I’ve always understood Whatever is the brightness of my life Attributed to feelings fleet and rife Then stay, stay forever and a day For I have known the Eastern rise as dawn As daylight, so you are the sun Copyright Kkh 5/3/08 |

The endless beauty that you write so elegantly, brings tears to my eyes. It is that breathtaking!!! You upstage yourself time and again TD, and you never fail to move me. |
