Tonight Comes In silvered slippers a spirit appears a waft of breeze will blow her near she is an apparition to only you but in your reverie, what could she do? She knows your heart, your soul, your mind she is but a reflection of fantasies kind she knows your pain, your hopes, it's true she embodies the fire of golden red gone blue. An apparition of common's sense she may clutch your recompense as to her you may yearn to aver and in your fancy hold her near. She will stroke your face and whisper and all you will crave is just to kiss her as her sweet siren's song is sung and in that moment, the tonight becomes a treasured instant, the import will pass as you cling to memories past in silvered slippers a spirit appears and in your fancy, you hold her near. ©Karilea Rilling Jungel 4 August 2000 |

The silvered slippers gave an interesting visual appeal to this phantom of the night "A clay pot sitting in the sun will always be a clay pot. It has to go through the white heat of the furnace to become porcelain." --Mildred W. St |

Karilea, A delighted awe-struck reader is blinking in a deep reverence to you... my thought channels have become single tracked single issued... and all the words in my head are unifying to one word... MAJESTIC... regards, sudhir p.s. the title reminded me of a Joe Cocker song When the night comes... initially, but that song - in fact one of my liked ones -is way out of league....
