One Wish Granted ~~~ Entranced before a window arms outstretched ... but resting on its frame The only sound that falls to ear from a pendulum's rhythmic swing ~ A gentle flame sends ghostly shadows that dance to silent notes Entwined in scents from fireside inlaid with cherry smoke ~ They said she would appear this night as all the stars align I drank their potion said the chant Still dispirited counting time ~ The hour's close near darkest night a looking glass beside me hand crafted by the little folk ornate with sprigs of ivy ~ Enchanted ... yes ... they cannot lie my wish they guarantee Their word's been kept since dawning time One minute more ... we'll see ~ A deafening thunder breaks the still as lightning strikes the yard From gentle breeze to baleful gale " They've got my attention Lord ! " ~ The ancient mirror begins to glow as the clock counts off the trials My heart explodes beneath my chest with the force of a billion smiles ~ " Take my hand ... while the clock still strikes " your voice pleads ... from inside To my surprise I reach within with both arms open wide ~ Your loving touch and I'm pulled through time to your kiss oh ... sweet embrace A whirling swirling rainbow ride as the tears roll down my face ~ " To the end of time ... I beg of you Never leave these loving arms " ~ " But there's one more task you must fulfil if you wish to win my charms " ~ With sprawling thud ... I hit the grass spinning senses in a daze A newborn sunlight warms my face sparkling air helps lift the haze ~ "Such marvels cast this wondrous world" your voice sings with a smile ~ ... " You must catch me " ... rings your taunting laugh from a glade nearly half a mile ~~~ |

 (giggles) This is sooooooo adorable, sweet friend, this reminded me of "Darby O'Gill & The Little People" when the leprechaun always managed to trick those even when they caught him for a wish! (smiles) Never take magic for granted, tee-hee, yay, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Rex, thank you for sharing!  May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "You'll find something that's enough to keep you |
