Come stroll the sandy dunes of Candlelight Bay < !signature-->I plead do not let time take you away do not let my memory in your mind ever stray remember upon our lips the taste of Cabernet shared within our love of Candlelight Bay let us leave forever footprints upon the shore grains of sand in the wind forever we will soar only time will take you away my paramour forever in the night our bodies will sway upon the shores dancing in Candlelight Bay forever we will drift in the wind like bouquet our sweet memories will never melt like sorbet and if the hand of time invites me to dance away I will return as a mermaid in Candlelight Bay A poem is never finished, only abandoned. - Paul Valery (1871-1945) [This message has been edited by Victoria (edited 01-11-2001).] |

I absolutely love the way you weave your words in this fantasy-like romantic piece! One of your best, I'm printing out a copy for myself The flow and the rhyme is perfect and I love how you repeat the line "of/in Candlelight Bay" throughout, that's very effective, especially when you begin and the end the poem with that important line Take care, Melissa< !signature--> The beauty of poetry gives my soul wings to fly free within dreams [This message has been edited by Melissa Honeybee (edited 01-11-2001).] |

forever in the night our bodies will sway upon the shores dancing in Candlelight Bay forever we will drift in the wind like bouquet our sweet memories will never melt like sorbet and if the hand of time invites me to dance away I will return as a mermaid in Candlelight Bay ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Victoria, This is stunning. Love the visual blended with tender love. Deb |
