~~~ Not far it was from Heaven 'twas the very month of June and the sweetest birds were singing when first she stole my tune ... As if from out the bluest sky an angel came to call Quintessence of Irish memory with braids as I recall The golden sun's shine o'er the dew reflected through her eyes Like flowers from a woodland path her smile just mesmerized With dancer's wings she stepped along my song held in her arms My blue eyes dreaming hypnotized now locked within her charms "Good day kind sir" sweet melody embraced my very soul With butterflies and rubber thighs my tongue I swear it swoll My heart stood tall to brace my jaw an lock the molars tight The best I managed was a smile my voice had taken flight Pausing she locked her gaze to mine reached out to my lapel Placed a fragrant flower there bent close to share its smell The moment stole my breath from me I gazed in pure delight Enchanted with her beauty rare awoke to silent night ~~~ |

Aw! Why'd you have to wake up from that one?! I was enjoying it so much. I was going to put a tune to it and market it as an Irish Spring commercial....But this waking up to silent night thing and it's not even Christmas... Dang! But dang good poetry.

Drat! Dreaming again. When this poem began and I read the line "when first / she stole my tune ..." I flashed back to an old song by Melanie by the name of "Look What They've Done to My Song, Ma." ~ Clones are people two ~ |

I adore this. Looking on the bright side, even if it was just a dream; dreams are always better than nightmares Enjoyed. -Trina |
