Flickering flames dancing upon the walls as pen flows fast, stops, stutters and stalls A fragrance flowing from across the way calling, whispering, telling him to stay. The flames that waiver and tell the tale as two shadows now one in passion flail A sigh, a moan, a gasp in whispered soft from above, the steps into one love’s loft A clink of glass that tells of their thirst giggles and laughs, one surely will burst Murmurs and smacks from kisses shared lost in the moment two lovers dared Hay falling like straw messengers thin telling of the love which conquers, wins Familiar sounds of love in their throes lasting till daybreak, no one else knows Eyes drift into sleep in morning’s rise as slumber takes from lips longing sighs Two hearts joined as one beating strong as love of ages becomes melodic song. |

(sigh) Wow, you indeed have a wonderful library of love going, sweet friend, the descriptiveness of your words always amazes me and has me waiting to see what you come up with next! (smiles) This is another fabulous classic, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Barry, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton |

Magnus hi there this is absolutely excellent writing, and this verse is truly one of the best I’ve ever seen from you. I know you are a good writer, I’ve read your work and I’m inspired by it, this is something extra special. As mum says you are almost too good. Excellent writing I really do love this Eyes drift into sleep in morning’s rise as slumber takes from lips longing sighs Two hearts joined as one beating strong as love of ages becomes melodic song. Love and warm stuff As always Krissy And while thy willing soul transpiers |

good grief, I don't know how you guys come up with such romantic mushy stuff! I guess I've grown out of that phase in my life and writing [This message has been edited by passing shadows (04-12-2002 05:06 AM).] |

Magnus~ 'Eyes drift into sleep in morning’s rise as slumber takes from lips longing sighs Two hearts joined as one beating strong as love of ages becomes melodic song.' Oh ... such beauty in this piece~ *sighs* *HUGS* ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ |
