You are what I wanted You are what I hunted And, As far as I knew Love, Was loving you Carousels and brass rings Playing in my mind. You are all I ever hoped to find. I hope to find you love me A love that will withstand I hope to find the brass ring Is gold upon your hand You’re my warmest center Let spring turn out for winter If our hearts beat out of tune Would they unravel soon? Spun from golden thread The type that spins my head That’s where it would start The thread upon our heart The needle plays the tune Would it unravel soon? Carousels and brass rings Playing in my mind. You are all I ever hoped to find. You, I could not conceive You’d give your time for me And now we make believe Round and round and free Threads of golden strand A love that will withstand I hope to find the brass ring Is gold upon your hand [This message has been edited by wayoutwalt (edited 06-10-2001).] |

Ah........I love to see a man in love! ![]() Not only to say the right thing in the right place, but far more difficult, to leave unsaid the wrong thing at the tempting moment. |

The brass ring fascinates so many, yet so many refuse the risk of falling. It is warming to find one who was swung out sans net, risking all he is for that elusive prize: love. Very well expressed, WoW, and the unstructured approach with varied line breaks trains the eye, causing better absorption of material and message. |
