Emerald eyes lay closed to light As a final sigh falls soundless In yesterday lay earthen dreams Untouched by silvered bliss. Water shimmers beneath my feet As in eternity I wade My angels bathed in misty white I see in distant shade. Upon a stream of billowing blue I soar among the stars Lavender clouds enrapture me As they whisper from afar. My lover lays upon the grass That sways beneath my feet With golden grace I fall to him And once more our souls do meet. A breathy wish comes from my lips And around us roses climb Here within his tender embrace My forever is sublime. *Krista Knutson* ~Upon pearled wing love's fantasy takes flight~ |

me thinks me needs some K, contacts... or some K, rose colored glasses.. cause K's eyes see only beauty. the view thru K's, eyes is DIVINE... as is this exceptional poem... you are amazing my friend. jm Some things cannot be explained by verses that rhyme, They are not measured by the commitment of time. Some emotions run too deep to be described by words, Forgiveness and understanding-remain the most beautiful words ever heard. ~Janet Marie~ "What the caterpillar calls the end ...

hehehhhe.... two in one weekend! Wonderful. I bet you can't guess which line was my fav?? well, probably, but I'll tell you anyways... "Upon a stream of billowing blue I soar among the stars Lavender clouds enrapture me As they whisper from afar." Yay!

You paint a vivid scene interwoven with feeling, Krista! I wish I had some contact to your muse and a vacation villa in one of the wonderlands you've devised. Another excellent poem, my dear friend!
