His MuseHe sits alone with pen in hand, gold lamplight stills the evening, and thinking on life's journey hence begins poetic weaving. When in the midst of contemplate, aglow with Heaven's light, anew from night's horizon falls a fragrant, flowing sight. A lovely maid of fairest form, enwrapped in satin strands, draws nigh and with her gentle touch pours peace into his hands. And with her kiss upon his brow from lips of fragile pink, contentment flows as whispered dawn drains sorrow from his ink. And, lovely verse and sonnets penned, exhausted now, he sleeps. His muse takes leave as once again ...for his poet's heart, she weeps.  Claire[This message has been edited by Meadowmuse (edited 06-24-2000).] |

WOW Claire. another magical poem. Each line is beautiful, perfect and tender. A rock pile ceases to be a rock pile the moment a single man contemplates it, bearing within him the image of a cathedral. Antoine de Saint-Exupéry |

Does it very get much better than this, Claire? I would be damned if it did!!! Such a wonderful way you have with words, that my mentioning that this is BEAUTIFUL won't do much justice... regards, sudhir.

What can I say, I know this well and through A poem so nice and beautiful, but the best part is....it's done by you The flow of words and of emotion sets my heart again in motion I thank you for displaying here such beauty I see through my cristal shpere L & S P The ability to describe life with words is similar to painting a picture; both can be powerful tools. |
