Sounds Soft, gentle harp play quiet, not sharp lullaby me to my sleep wake me gentle from dream deep sway me into a wistful mood do not allow me to brood soft, subtle harp ever so soft, never sharp you are the very reason I cry heaven help me here I sigh… for you were being plucked while on my bridal bed I lay and there, a high note struck and my soul’s mate died that day…. 19 July 2000 ©Karilea Rilling Jungel Sunny ~~~Keep your face to the sunshine and you cannot see the shadow. Helen Keller ~~~ When you want to be loved, look within...KRJ |

Thank you all so much. "Haunting" was what I was going for...apparently I did this for some of you! Sunny ~~~Keep your face to the sunshine and you cannot see the shadow. Helen Keller ~~~ When you want to be loved, look within...KRJ |

Such tender passion followed ending in pain. This was a wonderful read and I can see why Sudhir came back to it. It does haunt ones soul. |

Sudhir, Mark, thank you very much for reading and commenting. Perhaps the "moral" behind this is that even in the sweetest of times, loss can be so immediate. Never then hesitate to enjoy what life brings. {~,^} KRJ |
