"Morning's Promise" Awak'ning, shaken from a dream by night's intrusive thief with dews of morning's pleasures past still beaded on the leaf She'll rise, reluctant, from the veil of dawn's last silken sigh with echoes stirring round her head of luna's lullaby What treasures will befall her eyes as darkness lifts its wing as daylight settles valley wide and birds in cypress, sing Reminding her that long ago God's gracious promise made as swift, her feet across the floor she lifts the linen shade Rainydays |

She'll rise, reluctant, from the veil of dawn's last silken sigh with echoes stirring round her head of luna's lullaby ======================= Reminding her that long ago God's gracious promise made as swift, her feet across the floor she lifts the linen shade ================== exquisite, exceptional writing this is indeed beautiful and graceful the cadence and flow completed the gift. take care jm There are places inside our souls - that have never been touched. There are places inside our hearts - that need to be loved this much. ~jm~ |

Linen protection lifted in daylight's promise exposing new hope ~~*~~ Quiet whisperings heartfelt response to friendship found in home of soul ==================== Thought I would try some senyrus today instead of my normal verse. Hope you like them. This is truely a beautiful piece from you and I now have a new favorite.....well, maybe tied for first. Can you guess which is my other favorite of yours? |
