In The Shadows - Moonlight Dancing ~*Marge Tindal*~ Swaying branches of the willow among the shadows of the night Moonlight comes in soft array gracefully dancing slivers of light Dancing beams entrancing courtesy of a cloud-split sky Permitting a symphony of light upon the shadows prancing by In the shadows - moonlight dancing upon the skirt of willow twirls Once more round the meadow waltzing as the night wind gently swirls Now with dawning light of day gentle breezes softly play Gracing yet her gentle sway of shadows in moonlight danced away ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ noles1@totcon.com [This message has been edited by Marge Tindal (edited 02-21-2001).] |

Marge that's where I belong dancing in the moonlight, and this is divine, it is so beautiful full of images, womderfully written. I'll just sprinkle some on my fairy dust here, to add an extra glow. I like this one, now who else needs some glittering dust Iam that merry wanderer of the night I jest to Oberon, and make him smile Puck |

Wynter~ Thanks, gal ! BloomingRose~ Yeah ... the darned image showed for me - and I even printed it out ... then it disappeared. I even tried a new upload to my GeoCities server and it did the same thing again. I finally just took it out. I loved the beautiful weeping willow and wish I could have shared it with this piece. Thank you for letting me know and for the e-mails. JanetMarie~ Thanks for noticing the 'twist'. You are greatly appreciated in this lady's heart. Karilea~ I felt a renewed inspiration and am also pleased with the poetry it sparked ! Puck~ You're the greatest ! I'll take a large dose of that 'fairy dust'. PoeMinister~ Appreciate your thoughts always. SuthernGal~ Thanks for letting me know of the *sigh* ! LightHouseBob~ Thanks so much. Glad to have drawn you in. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ noles1@totcon.com |

Is she really swaying or would you call the sasshaying? Either way this piece is so lovely and your entry into this challenge is met with the tenderness of thought provoke in the simple complexity of nature and I thank you for sharing such a lovely piece my friend. |

Marge, what can I say your softer side is so natural and beautiful, you obviously have an affinity for nature and I have an urgent hankering for more of your work, but as I'm off to hiho, I'll carry this in my head. write on moon's song Kethry Those of us who refuse to risk and grow get swallowed up by life.

MarkB~ Hi, doll ! You caught me 'sashaying' with abandon ... Love ya'~ Kethry~ Thank you for such encouraging comments ... I guess my 'affinity' is of a spirit borne of life in finding the softness of all things and within, finding who I am meant to be. *Hugs* ... ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ noles1@totcon.com |
