On those nights that I might dream I sleep behind a pane of glass no thing to block the sun from me-- I love to wake held by my sky. I used to have lace panel sheers-- illusion of romance. The patterns of the weave of tears made puppets of belief of chance. Now I just drape cotton sheet-- a shroud of linen's disbelief. I wake, now, to dappling-- knowing that my love is there. The mares of night hang head in shame, submissive in this dance of hawk. I watch the two encircling diving in transparency-- clouds will break in safe passage... my love, my love I'm not forsaked. I pull the sheets and feel him shine... How is it that this is for me? |

The mares of night hang head in shame, submissive in this dance of hawk. I watch the two encircling diving in transparency-- Oh Karen you do squeeze words and feelings for all they are worth and you didn't even put this winner into Reflections? Fantastic! ~* Carpe' Diem *~ [This message has been edited by Mysteria (02-20-2003 08:44 PM).] |

(smiles) Oh Karen, I would choose this kind of wake-up call over the traditional loud alarm clock beep any morning! (big huggssssssss) This is lovely, sweet friend, yay, I love it, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Karen, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |
