A poem inspired by Brianbeaudry's beautiful write "Enchanted Night" The night has cast, transfixed its spell. I rest beneath its glowing lights, caressed by thoughts that captivate, from gaze of blue that warms, ignites. The maze of you reveals to one, connecting souls awash in myst. Nakedthoughts in silent speak, the darkness loud, in dreams' resist. Each breeze that flows to cradled arms, shadows one, to fall within. Enchanted, I, by all your charms that reign as moonlight settles in. Lost in thought of crescent moon. In wait of full, returning soon. Maureen **with thanks to Bb** for inspiring me so. "For it was not into my ear you whispered, but into my heart. |

I beem with pride knowing that one of my poems inspired the beauty of this verse!! There is nothing like the brilliance and mystery of the night sky to inspire emotion. I'll include my poem in this responce so others can see the birth of yours. Enchanting Night Sweet blanket of the night bring star's caress to sight Vastness, hold fast my gaze infinities of your maze Naked skies reveal the flight of cosmos awash in light Mystical voices listen, hark! loud silence of the dark Evening breeze hold me nigh in dreams of nocturnal sky Bright luminosity of moon cradle gently my swoon As I fall in shadowed arms enchanted by your charms Brian Beaudry |

The maze of you reveals to one, connecting souls awash in myst. Nakedthoughts in silent speak, the darkness loud, in dreams' resist. Absolutely gorgeous, Maureen...and a beautiful complement to Brian's poem which is also a beautiful poem... (its amazing how that word keeps popping up) Kudos to two terrific poets! copyright2002 Lyra Nesius |
