Lustrous Overtones Velvet night speaks its rudimentary language to the stars Soul to soul discussions mirrored in the lake below Words of passion send shiver across a vast horizon Intentions twinkle, Emoting in the heaved bosom of twin mountains cloaked in black Sighs of patient understanding, a shy pulsing purple Where Northern lights cast luminary consequence Of jade colored veils and mauve petticoats Undulating a silence more potent in its echo These ghostly winds bewitch Far from here, my heart has heard you Scent of sweet grass and clover summons vision Moving along symmetrical circles, to study each breath Moonlit outlines of long, slow trails in midnight quiet A picture as vivid to me as my own skin Drinking in time to calm the urgency of sooner things Velvet night speaks it rudimentary language to the stars Where I have placed my wishes and my prayers Amongst the other bright and heavenly bodies there Copyright Kkh 8/28/08 |

You have painted some wonderful images with your words which made reading this a pleasure. Do not go gentle into that good night. |
