A smile of one to grace the eyes to bring to ears the softest sighs To yearn to kiss and hold one’s face To sip of finest wine in grace She dreams again of wanton times Of cooler nights and softer climes She would again be held in arms That had retrieved her given charms A touch of soft, treasured linger Flowing over curves, a gentle finger Moist lips that beg to be once kissed Thoughts shared by two in times of bliss The shadows hid the tear of death The winds, they took away her breath The hills, they held her love so dear Alone, when alone, what is to fear? The golden sun in shine of bright, showering two lovers in warmest light A parting glance from misted view Two are one now born again new. But ‘twas a dream, a dream, misspent Pale daylight found this woman, bent O’er a grave, where flowers were laid For a Knight worthy, his life’s debt, paid |

My Enchanted....thank you, but half the credit goes to an anonymous muse... Floria, thanx, and my muse should be credited for the touching story...I was quite surprised by that piece of the poem. Noah...thank you my fine friend...always so kind.. Martie, thank you dear lady...appreciate your response.. Melissa, a muse worthy of the write gave me the lines that truly added to the poem. |

Apparently you have chosen your muse with great care...keep your muse close, as the two of you suit each other very well... |
