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? ------------------ ...Living is ever like crossing rivers; finding a new life on each shore ...

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. |
