With three ex-wives expelled from mind. In sullen space he loomed and moped his distant memories mulled in smoke, with pillars of distaste inside. But every day his heart evoked silent thoughts of love regained a search for happiness through pain. Filled flush with wealth under his roof true to a fault with money's hope enticing minds with regal show and words to pitch his worth aloof. His song would trap a callow soul, with flash of kindness in deceit a merchant of contrived relief. But when she came one month, to clean, The darkness of his thoughts went dry, then sunward went his soul on high and filled with life his heart broke free! The shadows of his latter pride were lit with daylight and unchained from the guileness of his game. Then, too, she brought his faith to swell. His needs beheld in her sweet face uplifted by her tender grace. On him, like gentle rain she fell to water wisdom once displaced. He offered her his wealth and fame and at her feet he threw his gain. He watched her soft eyes slowly drop Stoned innocence filled her light laugh then she spoke pure unabashed deep words of love spilled from her thoughts. He heard a river's length of love to last, about her boyfriend and their plans and her eyes glowed solely for her man. Through years of trading he had fought where friends were shallow, fierce and dim where all the world was made to win and render profits at all cost. Yet this songbird sang over him from her nest of silver dreams and left him helpless and unclean true love never looks after it's own interests |

Enjoyed the forwardness of emotion play here, could see the clouds overcast,then the clearing, then clouds again. Open arms can be the most fragile in the world... |
