Silent Gallop in the Night "When morning takes it's first breath" no longer do I share it's born. Wondering, I, what little time hast passed, as age and I now mourn. The candles once, lit staged for two, a crescent moon hast slimmed to nil. No moonlit day to guide this heart to missing knight of daytime fill. Perhaps 'twas just an idol dream, romantic touch, a bit of whim. Maybe 'twas only fairytales of princesses and prince of him. Someday, the steed will gallop to an open window, 'neath chamber room. Birds will sing of love once more, some he will lift me from this tomb To take this Lady's hand in hold, release the heart that's memoir bound. Her words, sincere will fall to him, her breath again, will then be found. Lady Ollyne "O, learn to read what silent love hath writ: |

Oh yes!! I do hope a handsome knight upon his brave steed does take the lady's hand and lead her from this place of lonely memories. Love this. Chris Life is not measured by breaths you take, but by moments that take your breath away. |
