Across The Wilderness of Love |

A lone rider crosses the wilderness In search of a vision from sleep Along a path winding, so endless in thoughts treasured and so deep. A kiss in dreams, a touch not felt A beauty in mind, of softest skin In rest, beside her he had knelt lightly touching, her heart within The ride long, the perils to find The heart strong, to hold and see A moment of bliss, only in mind Yearning, wanting, hoping to be. Left to the wandering, endless trek Shedding a tear, if only just one. Wiping the eyes from sands speck Wandering, beneath heat of sun. Come from the vision to once see the beauty so rare, so precious be Let the heart of two souls ‘gain beat entwined eternal, till once will meet |

Magnus darling boy oh my stars this is utterly utterly one of your best ever. This flows like liquid honey, sweet and as smooth as silk. Truly awesome writing, you never disappoint the reader darling boy, and this reader, in particular is always delighted by all you write. Even if it’s quality is immeasurably superior to my own I forgive you for being such a fine writer. Muse problems darling boy, how could your muse dessert you? You’d never know darling boy not in a million years, this is excellent Love and warm stuff As always Mushy To give light to them that sit in darkness..... to guide our feet into the way of peace Luke 2:79 [This message has been edited by Marsha (04-07-2002 01:53 PM).] |
