The Dreamer’s Dance ‘Twas but his hand, his to beckon Her to a lighter stance Trusting her right, She would reckon To chance this glorious dance Keeper of all thy angels’ song, Sprinkle thy comfort of night so long Dance around thy dreams desire And seek ye yet thy steady fires, Behold thy stars glow so bright Where steady rocks this private night, Touch me lightly with thine eyes, Then swift upon thy high moon’s rise Stroke those places of deepest need Drop again man’s greatest greed Borrow soul's voice to set in jewels As around thy neck a fine chain tooled ~*~ She dallied and she played away But upon these dreams came sorrow And lonely, oh so lonely still She woke alone upon thy morrow, ~*~ For borrow did she and set in jewels Around her neck, a fine chain, tooled.

Lady darling girl again your writing is outstandingly beautiful in its form it’s utterly utterly breathtaking in its beauty. Your heart is truly in this, I love it utterly utterly. Sometimes I swear you write with starlight, this is one of those times. I wonder from whence came these words of finest flow that trickle through this delight with pure wonder. Obviously they came from within a mind of sparkling dreams Absolutely beautiful writing darling I love the growth of you. Perfect darling heart utterly utterly perfect. And yes I love it utterly As always Mushy To give light to them that sit in darkness..... to guide our feet into the way of peace Luke 2:79 |

Lady, do you have any idea just how lovely this is? It's as delicate as a rose petal and has the same effect upon my senses. It's mine, I'm keeping it. |

Normally, I have a problem with old english. It's very difficult to do well, but this is gorgeous. I liked very much the stand out stanza format too. Effective in leading the mind to "bounce"... and the metaphors make me smile secret smiles. |

Stroke those places of deepest need Drop again man’s greatest greed Borrow soul's voice to set in jewels As around thy neck a fine chain tooled Just lovely!!! Chris Life is not measured by breaths you take, but by moments that take your breath away. |
