Within the fade of morning dream as sleep surrenders to the morn a sound whispering, not a scream to pause the beat of one heart torn What of this breeze of soft in voice that flutters heart and lids of eyes when love is left and not of choice and sorrow brings heartfelt sighs As grasses green now fade the crush of passions once lying in taste when bodies squirming felt the rush of fires in glow of morning’s haste The rise of sun upon the moon retires the lawn as does the heart when stars once shine now soon feels love’s wishes tearing apart Dampness of the kisses given now dry as lips moistened then split as whisper’s breeze whence once driven returns a sagging soul to sit |

Magnus darling boy, you know there’s a place within each of us, and perhaps because we write it is closer to the surface, but it’s in us all, that place where dreams merge with images of what might have beens and possibly. This is the place that your writing takes me too. This is the place of hearts sighs and souls ache, where shadows whisper secrets and pain throbs in echo. What I’m trying to say darling boy is your writing carries me to the place of inspiration where I find the words I need to write my soul. I love this absolutely divinely written art form. Your writing is utterly utterly perfect and 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 |

KJ....thank you....My first inclination was that the poem wsn't long enough... I still sort of feel that... And I was having some problem with the split and sit rhyme.... really wanted sit to be something else....but my desire was a figure that was very saddened and lost....awaiting something that might never return...hence the nevermore part..... THANK YOU for your reply/comment... |

Beneath the leaves of Autumn's crown Drift silently and settle down In falls of miles in azure eyes From heights profound in love's demise That must have been one beautiful summit my friend. ThisDiamond |

Mushy, dearest darling girl....mayhaps I have managed to take you down a path of feelings that comes to all of us at one time or the other.... You have been writing a lot of feelings lately....perhaps I can inspire a few more.. If so....I will certainly be very very pleased... |
