Listening to every heart

Amethyst Skies

calm, calm, the twilight rapture
lo this peacefulness, if not captured
in this, thy soul of even tide
go alone you, on a carpet ride

amethyst, a most lovely word
strength of color, its whisper heard
to embark toward light of nether-end
makes one want to come back again

and whisper amethyst, a soft caress ~
can one receive an amethyst kiss?
does one own a pair of amethyst eyes?
or just share visions of amethyst skies?

as amethyst darkens in twilight's hue
springs forth diamond stars, brand new
just the one, sits 'tween dusk and light
giving great promise to thee, long night

amethyst skies are fleeting, all but gone
yet thy color's memory lingers on
so somewhere across these amethyst skies
thy stars reflect a lover's eyes

so linger not, nay tarry none
as amethyst darkens over setting sun.

(smiles) Sooooooo romantic and beautiful! (sigh) I have many dreams of falling in love and many of them are at dusk, when the stars shine across the purple skies! (sigh) Such beautiful surreal visions fill your heart, sweet Karilea! (kiss on cheek) Soooooo lovely! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Sunshine, thank you for sharing!

May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Turn all of your pain to pleasure
Fill up your days with
