Let me escape into your arms hold me through the night, bring forth passions hidden within take me to a new height. Hold me through the night kiss my tears away, take me to a new height make me want to stay. Kiss my tears away as our souls entwine, make me want to stay be forever mine. As our souls entwine hold me through the night, be forever mine take me to a new height. On the wings of words our spirits fly....and our souls are free. |

You've a lovely pantoum format here.. You've modified the standard format, yes? We're doing pantoums in the workshop this month - It's nice to see them here in Open as well.. |

A quick thanks to all for the kind words. Nan, I don't know if this is modified from the other format or not. I will have to check it out, but this is the way that I originally learned how to do them, and everyone at that forum a few years ago did them this way also. Perhaps there is more than one style? Thanks. Donna On the wings of words our spirits fly....and our souls are free. |
