Lit Looking through the flame Candle magic, danced its flickering light Catching my attention with the scent of woodland musk Lifting my eyes, the wandering sighs of my mind left my lips As blue as yours, details that never fade, fan the flames An easy style of strength and unconditional charm Strung like paper dolls across the walls The very air I breathe, seems to conceive of promise If I read your mind, would I not akin to Nostradamus? Predictions are the rosy cheeks of fate, a blush wine red I sip the fragrance and the dream, pulling tight the ribbons Curling in curtsy across the walls Thinking all the while, “I’m lit” Copyright Kkh 7/20/09 |

A combination of romance and spooky thrills in this enigmatic write. Can just see the scene before my eyes. A wonderful picture poem. Heart2Heart |

Lit... LOL So many connotations to that word come up...but even second sight has been referred to as "shining". The things we perceive from within, and manifest without... but love is the charmed one, and I felt the magic. Karen |

"I sip the fragrance and the dream, pulling tight the ribbons Curling in curtsy across the walls" You just keep pulling these beauties out of the sky, Kathleen. You eyes are 'lit' with magical skylights. |

Lovely writing. I used to have a reoccurring nightmare about paperdolls strung together. I don't want to go there - so I'll focus on the beauty of your words. A |
