Gentle maiden full of love Thou to me didst come like an angel sent from above Thou open'd thine heart and bade me to come in Giving me this peace within On wings of love didst thou come Coming on morns first light with the rising of the sun Singing with sweetest voice Heaven's gentlest song Knowing that for it I longed Gentle maiden, tarry I pray Stay with mine heart till cometh the new day And when thou depart again to thy home Then true love I will have known ------------------------------------------------------------------ That which gives light must endure burning --Victor Frankl |

This should be read with some Shakespearean music in the background. It's a good one! |

Sven, Beautiful writing. Wow, five posts in five forums . . . you have been busy!! LW Poetry should surprise by fine excess...it should strike the reader as a wording of his own highest thoughts and appear almost a remembrance. -J.Keats |
