~Empty Manor~  She flung open the grande balcony windows the balmy night semingly added to her despair tears fell softly down upon ivory cheeks she no longer his love, his lady fair. Sounds of hoof beats filled the air on mounted stead he galloped away pain flowed in flooding her soul her heart cried, begging him to stay. In reflection she looked over yon garden where so oft' they walked hand in hand it's beauty she could no longer see this seeming to be a final reprimand. The silver moon slid behind the clouds the eve no longer illuminated by Lunas light she sat down at the mahogany writing desk but it was futile, for she could not write. With delicate hand she turned back the quilt of her favorite antique victorian bed and she fluffed the lace trimmed pillows then laid down to rest her weary head. Her heart would not grant her the peace praying dreams to come before the morrow alas though, sleep was not meant to be in this night full of loves sweet sorrow. © dmsmith |

Oh, Donna! First that magical picture, that I struggled to drag my eyes away from - then the beautiful poem - with a horse in it - and the beautiful sadness and the magic of once upon a time - all of which could be translated into Today. I do so hope this is not based on fact. Beeeeeeg warm hugs! - Owl |

Finally, I am getting a chance to read these as they were meant to be read, in peace, quiet, and by a pool's reflection... and I am pleased.  |

Donna this is so good, just a trifle sad but a very sweet poem. Much enjoyed. Lindsay |
