Fragile Recipe Mix some quick silver of the moon A pinch of the cry of the loon Then add some mist of shadows dance And you have the key to romance. Twill open almost any door Twill sail you to forevermore. A potion with a fantasy Encapsulates loves mystery It is a fragile drink to take Each drink exacting in its make Too much destroys its illusion To little leaves no conclusion. So let the alchemist beware And mix the portions fair to fair And keep the scales at even tide Or the potion will not abide. It also comes in a bouquet And happens almost everyday. |

To look beyond the horizon's scape to wear the mask with mystery's cape allow but one to enter the door and find a love forevermore... sit here beneath the willow's bend find a charming forever friend and you are treated to a winsome breeze when you read just one Sy reverie... |
