The Last Magi Moon A wet grey mist clings damp and bold Layering my face in somber cold Masking my look to bleak malaise Hardening my stare to a fixed gaze. Clouds have pulled a curtain to stay Settling the light to sullen grey With shrouds of fog to bar the true Altering my sight to vaguer view. Sending me to nebulous sail Through a haze of blurry derail A numb place of doubts and dark Without a spark or guiding mark. She does not call and she does she write This butterfly of my aging night She is locked in goodbye's hard cocoon Waiting new lullaby of the moon. By that I mean the Magi's moon To listen for another tune. |

Seymour you are without a doubt apoet's poet. "Sending me to nebulous sail Through a haze of blurry derail A numb place of doubts and dark Without a spark or guiding mark." I got to say I love that.. wish I'd written it myself...let her listen for another lullaby under the three wise men's moon ...you can just stay here and write brother!!! have a nice day....ethome |

This shall haunt my soul for time to come... Karilea If I whisper, will you listen?... I would rather be silent and write, than speak loudly and be bound. KRJ |

I'll sing for you a lullaby ... lyrics written of butterfly I'll pen for you poetic butterfly verse ... grant release from doubting's curse I'll light for you candles spark ... to guide beautiful butterfly back from the dark I'll say a wish upon that flame ... for butterfly to whisper softly out your name Search the sky for phasing moon ... witness butterfly taking flight from cocoon know then you've witnessed destiny ... by gift of fate and poetry ... poets and butterflies are meant to be free. ********* *winkiewinkie* thank you for the inspiration thank you for another Sy-treasure for my library. missed you yesterday There are moments ... when I Love you beyond the limits of my human heart ... ...you will always be mine.
