SerenadeI heard you singing last night, sweet sojourner. Your voice followed into my sleep. It swirled just above my dreaming shape, stayed close as I slept, silently. When I am alone in my soul, sweet sojourner, slipping soundlessly from shadows surreal... your voice will still my uneven passage, my hesitant steps, as I heal.  Claire |

I can hear the song Need I say more Thank you The ability to describe life with words is similar to painting a picture; both can be powerful tools. |

I too have been enjoying your poetry Claire and the replies that you make to other's poetry is wonderful. This is a sweet and sensitive poem. In the dew of little things, the heart finds its morning and is refreshed. (ee cummings) |

You've chosen the perfect title for this piece! Beautiful, Claire! Denise And slight is the sting of his trouble Whose winnings are less than his worth; For he who is honest is noble, Whatever his fortunes or birth.~~~Alice Cary, ~Nobility~ |

Kind of a wistful beauty this posesses, I believe...truly lovely work, Claire. *Krista Knutson* ~*Like a lion, without fear of the howling pack, Like a gust of wind, ne'er trapped in a snare, Like a lotus blossom, ne'er sprinkled by water, Let me, like a unicorn, in solitude roam.*~ Hymn Of Buddha |
