Windswept girl she’s a star-crossed lover<BR>
Fragile and fragrant and running for cover;<BR>
Tucking those sudden tears out of sight<BR>
She won’t bring you down on this sweet night.<BR>
~ ~ ~<BR>
Dreamer sweet, she’s light on her feet,<BR>
Dancing through dazes of loves complete;<BR>
Hush now don’t wake her until the dawn,<BR>
When again she’ll behold the lives that are gone.<BR>
~ ~ ~<BR>
She’s an offspring of mine like my poetry<BR>
And I’m tender toward that child who was me.<BR>
Cradle her gently, she’s frail and small,<BR>
And please, if she trips, would you break her fall?

Rosemary - this poem was really neat - well versed and flowing smoothly from start to end. The only problem I have with it is that any mention of wind just makes Toerag more windie - If he reads this poem we'll all be in for a long day of his windiness - lol.
