Quinella & Konrad In a night's dream of mode long ago virgin lady faire did come, though weak saw comely Knight in metallic robe there in a vision she caught a peek in a lightsome moonbeam bright came to her, did this bravely Knight O'er a highest hill he had hied o'er meadow, cross'd river wide on blackest steed he did then ride to see her, his Quinella's face to hold her in his strong embrace he hied his horse to pick up pace Through his travels he suffered well the hardship's scheme of told tale a vision and voice only he could hear as he hied and cross'd icy stream a warmth and body he'd hold near and did wrest his painful way under pale moon's beam to her cadences he had sung, prayers pray'd slowly he'd giv'n thought to pilgrimage to locate but once the inflection'd image a silvered ghost, a heart's tempest unrest her love's heart, his soul's best 'twas true, his Knighthood's quest of her his vision fought the truthful fight to find her dream in him… Quinella's dream…. ©Karilea Rilling Jungel 1 September, 2000 |

Sunshine, You write so well and make it look so easy. Be well Kethry "It is the image in the mind that links us to lost treasures; but it is the loss that shapes the image, gathers the flowers weaves the garland."- |

Nan, I sincerely hope you look into that piece of work, and pull it apart because I do believe that someday this should be shared and I would want it ALL to be correct...[and I've got Christopher's seven pages of corrections to make...] Thank you! |
