Sy’s Song to ‘Lizbeth [in response to Candelabra]

Here, there doth passed a great romanticist
Seen by the very words that he kissed
When speaking rhyme of candles bright
That lit the darkest of the night…

And maiden she would hear his song
To his side she swift ~ belonged
And whispered low in shadowed light
How his candelabra’s song was ever bright.

He took her by her maiden’s hand
To his ballroom now lit grand
With golden stems holding forth great light
And danced her dance all through his night.

Phantoms of time looked down upon them
As he held her close in dancing spin
And when she chanced to look up at him
She found he’d become her dream ~ a whim.

For ‘twas a dream, the song of which he wrote
By his very words to her heart did emote
The song of dreams that could come true
that is how a poet works, the words are just for you.

22 November, 1999

Sunshine,
You have made from one a thousand flair
These candles that your words did bare.
And I'm in awe your steep of tea.
You have written a true epopee. *L*

Dear Sy, your analysis pleases me thus
For you know I’ll not make fuss
Over anything other than veracity,
As ever all your work that comforts me…

So if I might make you smile,
Give reason to the day worthwhile,
And take away any crimson bile,
Then I will go for you that extra mile.
