Gifts ~*~ He took a word gave it a spin then left it alone to dwell within it ran and cavorted found then her heart now his words will not depart ~*~ He said “I am but a refugee so you must never trust in me for I am a tired soul of one and cast my shadows from shine of sun.” ~*~ She watched and saw the pain of him reached out her hand ‘twas not a whim said “you shall come along with me, and settle in peace most easily.” ~*~ For she was but a song of light and saw him through his dark of night wresting dragons away from hell left him sitting in quiet spell ~*~ In time, in time he found his mind and then he found his heart for in her song for him alone she gave him courage from which to start ~*~ He took a word gave it a spin then left it alone to dwell within it ran and cavorted found then her heart now his words will not depart ~*~ |

Wonderful gifts of encouragement and love...wonderful lady...do you think I could find someone like that to help me if I ever happen to be..... "wresting dragons away from hell" because that would be a super problem and hard to overcome...the heat, the depth, the jailer with the red suit, the smoke and then throw a dragon in on top of all that, well now, that's the woman for me..... Great stuff Karilea! The poet is like a cocoon; in him the caterpillar of the past finds rest, and from him the butterfly of the future emerges. |
