Mystic misted waters meandering through a frosted land Laid out before my eyes like the lines upon my hand Earthen shapes like crystal refract the light of distant moon dancing in the heavens like an illuminated loon Soon the faded silver dust will rain upon the sands of time within this kingdom made of luminescent bands Grand obelisks of onyx play against Horizon's wall Jagged teeth to bite the skies that now embrace the Lunar Ball Brilliance wrapped in subtle shades that map the landscape of the mind through the void that yesterday forgot and left behind These Images of Empires that indwell within your dreams they are there just for the taking They are there or so it seems |

Geoffrey, Images of Avalon dance in my mind as this poem wraps itself with such vivid images around me. Earned my vote and also my eager anticipation of your next submission. Life is not a spectator Sport! Dance like no one's watching. Love like it's never going to hurt. |

Thank you Heather ! Thanks minstrel, nice of you to say Thank you michelle. I really like what you said there. I do have a couple that I submitted the past couple of days. Just click on for the last 5 days option and I'm there, OK ? One called "Dark Angel" that I dedicated to Dark Angel and one called "Band of Light". Thanks Geoffrey |
