The sun shines brightly outside < !signature-->Its rays reflect off the incoming tide The water washes over the sand My mind wanders to a distant land I am transported back to another place There I can almost see his face The knight was courageous and noble too He rode through the forest from out of the blue Looking invincible on his trusty steed The maiden was sure he could fulfill her needs She sat there at the edge of the beach He rode up and stopped within arms reach Good afternoon my lady he said to the maiden fair One look in his deep blue eyes turned into a stare She would gladly bare her soul to this man For her he'll do all he possibly can The couple sat and talked for many hours Out on the beach near the beautiful flowers He asked her to dinner that evening Although it was happening she had a hard time believing She went to his castle for a fabulous meal He told her that his feelings were real In a month they would be man and wife For all time they would share a life Friends are friend forever if the Lord's the Lord of them and a friend will not say never cause the welcome will not end. --Michael W.

What a wonderful fairy tale. I loved it. Nothing can deter a poet, for he is actuated by pure love. Who can predict his comings and goings? "Thoreau" |

LW~ oh i liked this..liked a lot this was so wonderful...so fresh to read something with a happy ending...glad to see you are at least daring to hope these days. take care! amy "Don't be dismayed at goodbyes. A farewell is before you can meet again. And meeting again after a moment or a lifetime is certain for those who are friends." "Fate exists but it can only take you so far, Because once you're there It's up to you to make it happen." |
