Upon Wings Of Hawk

Doth thine eyes shadow with darkness
whilst I call thy name above starkness
cradle thy ailing body within thine arms
cast away wicked spells of evil charms.
I leave thy destiny prisoned within thee
till ye light of day shineth on forever free
I've seen thee smile to thy lasses young
and of flowers fragrance a song ye sung.
Ye hail to behold thy cherished women
abstinence of touch yields thee swim'in
against thine tides of harmony in danger
catch not ye undertow for thou stranger.
I grant thee to follow thy blood as it flows
whilst whispering wind speaks as it blows
leaves of nature kiss thee ground ye walk
make thee wishes fly upon wings of hawk.
Upon thy arrival of thine mornings rebirth
come to me bearing gifts of simple earth
then I shall see thy honesty ye possess
and forgive thee all thine errs nonetheless.

Refreshing thoughts.

'Upon thy arrival of thine mornings rebirth
come to me bearing gifts of simple earth
then I shall see thy honesty ye possess
and forgive thee all thine errs nonetheless.'

Corazon, I thank you, and I do understand where your coming from in your statement about the thee's and thou's, I also could not fathom them, but I've just started reading a book staged in this era and it has inspired me.

Lady Santos, I thank you most kindly.

This is poetry. Obviously, written by a talented poet.  Welcome to these halls of poetic expression.  Yours is a welcomed addition, and one to enjoy.
Looking forward to more.

Esmerelda, very well done!  It carries me to a Scottish castle upon the moor - which is where I would live if my heart had its way.  Welcome to Passions, and thank you for the lovely trip you sent me on!
