Each Night I Hold Her Hand It was on an ebony night I walked beneath a moonless sky Engrossed within a mind of flight That lit a path for you and I. It’s true it was an aisle of wile But it held me a willing host And played its beauty mile on mile. A phantom holding you a ghost And happily I held your hand And walked with you within this space Above the timeless passing sand Within a dreamers dreaming grace My heart was warm my soul at peace I did not wish the wile to fade I did not wish to end the lease I would remain this heavens glade. But life is not all dreamers’ dawn And sun does light the true of morn. |

It was on an ebony night I walked beneath a moonless sky Engrossed within a mind of flight That lit a path for you and I. =========================== And happily I held your hand And walked with you within this space Above the timeless passing sand Within a dreamers dreaming grace My heart was warm my soul at peace I did not wish the wile to fade I did not wish to end the lease I would remain this heavens glade. But life is not all dreamers’ dawn And sun does light the true of morn. ====================================== oh my...oh *sigh* ... OH Sy ![]() And upon the morning sun's silent rise I saw the kindness shining in your eyes It matters not dark of night or light of day when minds entwine ... the dream does stay On sands of serenity we walk your beaches of understand Time is lost to infinity when we hold our hearts in our hands ![]() I found this picture weeks ago and tucked it away for I knew eventually you would give me a chance to share it.... serendippity me sweet Stinky...minds entwined ![]() *winkiewinkie* ![]() [This message has been edited by Janet Marie (edited 10-13-2001).] |

This is a delightful poem. I really like the way you captured the moment: "It was on an ebony night I walked beneath a moonless sky Engrossed within a mind of flight That lit a path for you and I" It is so beautifully written, with a pleasant flow. |

This is amazingly tender and touching. Dreams are so sweet, sometimes we just don't want to wake up. If she who dies with the most toys wins, then can I have some toy boys please? |

Just came by ... for one more sigh ... 'Tis time to lay down my weary head Tonite let me dream ... this rhyme scheme dream ... Let me have visions of Eden and Heaven instead Close your eyes and take my hand as we walk the moonlit shore Dreams come true as a butterfly and dragon stroll upon beaches of evermore *winkiewinkie*...goodnight Sweet Stinky sweet dreams ![]() ![]() This distance has shown how the road remains alone |

Oh darn...I have to come back tonight again, as any time I end a poem with a huge contented sigh, that is a "night" poem! Oh this was so beautiful, and I will be back later when the sun goes down. ![]() |

you take a moment, then intertwine all loving hearts when you call her "mine" saved but for the woman whose art stole away your loving heart |
