Every Star When every star has flown the sky When every star has flown the sky And every moon beam said goodbye And every moon beam said goodbye When every moon beam, every star Has flown the sky, and said goodbye I still will hold a dream to keep I still will hold a dream to keep In darkness of the room I sleep In darkness of the room I sleep The still of darkness I will sleep In room I hold a dream to keep Of the cherished days our hearts unfold Of the cherished days our hearts unfold Memories which are in rhymes of gold Memories which are in rhymes of gold Of cherished hearts whichrhymes unfold The memories are in our days of gold When days unfold a said good-bye Our dream I hold has flown the sky Memories beam of hearts which still are The cherished rhymes to every star I will keep in darkness of the room And sleep in gold of every moon Elizabeth Santos |

Ohhhhhhhhh Lordy......I am so far behind you in this learning thing. You make it all seem so simple and here I am JUST now studying Sonnets. Beautiful Paradelle......don't know all ther rules but I do know what reads beautifully and THIS DOES. Excellent visions of peaceful thoughts just spill out in this one. |

Elizabeth, this reads like a lullably, something that a mum will sing to her children before they sleep, no longer afraid of monsters hanging around in the dark... well written! |

Well, I didn't think anyone could write a paradelle that was truly interesting. I was wrong. I still don't like all the repetition. I don't even like the form at all. But yours is pretty darn close. Even with all the words you had to jumble into the last stanza, it still made pretty good sense. Thanks, Pete |

This is truly wonderful, Lizzy... You've crafted this perfectly... and... You flushed out Pete's real reason for NOT writing one. Good work, dear lady.. |
