![]() ![]() Sun O' Merlin In shadowed depths dwelled the man spirit half then again mystery's chore in nevermore thus in sunlight wisdom bright caused the man to cry within "Curses" and befouled he my name took it he did in vain and cried he asunder soul then plundered tears he rendered brought none splendor In shadowed depths dwelled the man spirit half then again mystery's chore in nevermore thus in sunlight sapient bright and listened he as I spoke spirit half did not revoke the careless tongue in one so young but 'stead I waved on high wand of mystery till he sighed and aged he with whisker white rambled, ambled through long night in search of Sun sagely white for in the light man cannot hide the fool inside ©Karilea Rilling Jungel 6 August 2000 |

Sunshine, You have written a winner. It's formatted different than what I am use to, but I like it very much. And I like the words that you have written also. And the figure is equisite! |

Karilea, what an enchanting spell you have cast with this poem, it makes me want to shower you with well deserved praise. In shadowed depths dwelled the man spirit half then again mystery's chore in nevermore thus in sunlight sapient bright "To the centre of the city where all roads meet, waiting for you,To the depths of the ocean where all hopes sank, searching for you," Joy divison |

In shadowed depths dwelled the man spirit half then again mystery's chore in nevermore thus in sunlight sapient bright and listened he as I spoke spirit half did not revoke the careless tongue in one so young .. .. for in the light man cannot hide the fool inside ----- Merlin, the magician of renowned fame In all his mythical glory and power, Felt useless and wasted trying to tame The dazzle of the sun's bright rays. He waved his wand, in mighty mystical motion Calling upon dark clouds to shade the sun; The dark clouds melted - force of divine rays It rained hard - washing away Merlin's prays. --------- Karilea, you dunnit again... What a pleasure it gives me to read and gain from the experience... regards, sudhir |
