On the wings of Pegasus Into the night I soar From this land of sorrow To the land of evermore. Where dreams are lost reality And reality, but a dream. To imagine and then Experience What lies behind a screen Of lover's lies. Meet me in a canyon, Barren, save a lone plateau. That reaches to the night sky That’s where we two Shall go. And come together slowly, Don’t ask for reasons why, And slowly we shall dance In love 'Neath the desert sky. Meet me near the shoreline, Where angry waves wipe clean The golden beaches Where i desire To lay with you in my dream. Where gulls cry out in apathy For they surely do not care, About these lonely lovers, Caught up in red hair, And silver moonlight. Meet me in the future, For today is full of things, That draw me back And hold me tight In ties that bite and sting Against my skin Numbing And I can’t think of anything But soaring with you In the evermore, Riding on Pegasus' wings. |

Seraphin... Welcome to Passions!  "But soaring with you In the evermore, Riding on Pegasus' wings." This piece soars through my mind with a beautiful picture. You've made yourself a great entrance here at passions. I do so love this piece. ~Sheri |

To all, My most sincere thanks. I've been a silent presence here for some time. As a rule, I keep to the shadows. I hope to venture into the light a bit more frequently. I already know some of you, by your words. And wonderful words they surely are. Again, my thanks. @}~~~>~~~~ Sandi |

seraphin, Welcome to Passions!! This was a wonderful first post!! I am looking forward to reading more. You have quite a talent here! Lone Wolf Poetry should surprise by fine excess...it should strike the reader as a wording of his own highest thoughts and appear almost a remembrance. -J.Keats |

Wilfred, you already know that I am one of your fans. So your comments are twice as sweet. Thank you. Lone Wolf, I've been here but a brief time. I've read for hours, and been impressed over, and over, and over. There are some talents here that dwarf my finest efforts. I could be intimidated, or I could learn. I chose the latter. Thank you for reading my work. This is one of my personal favorites, as I have long wished to soar on Pegasus' wings. Sandi [This message has been edited by seraphin (edited 09-29-2000).] |

Hello seraphin... I want to welcome you to Passions also, and tell you that this first post is magnificent! Here is a little something I thought you might like. If you're running Windows, just right click and 'save as' to your hard drive, and it is yours.........  Today is a gift.... That is why they call it 'the Present'! |

Oh Sunny1, thank you! I love it! And thank you, too, Walt. When I first showed this piece to a friend, they told me I spent too much time with my head in the clouds. How do you explain, 'tis not my head, merely my heart. Sandi |

an outstanding entrance, seraphin! what a beautiful and ... what's the word... almost magical verse! it remined me very much of "the never-ending story". the second stanza i loved, as well as the one about the beach. very well penned. i am very glad you have decided to come share the limelight! oh and, you can never spend to much time with your head in the clouds! *WELCOME* Everyone's got their demons. We all got somethin' to atone for. |
