black velvet blossoms delicate to the touch the beauty of the rose cloaked in mysterious darkness what secrets lie beneath the sable veil a fragrance so honest yet concealed behind an ebony mask why does it hide perhaps in fear perhaps the fear of honesty itself as you search for an answer handle with care for fragile is the honest fragrance of the rose -vlraynes ...until you have read the verse on his heart, you have not truly met the poet -vlraynes [This message has been edited by vlraynes (edited 07-26-2000).] |

VLRaynes~ Could not resist the title - and was stunned by the beauty I found within. 'the beauty of the rose cloaked in mysterious darkness what secrets lie beneath the sable veil' A beautiful render. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ noles1@totcon.com |
