Draw The Circle Ever-Wide ~*Marge Tindal*~ ![]() Stomp the rhythm of the night Draw the circle ever-wide Chant of cant in ancient calling Invite of spirit to abide~ Lay the rune in stone's surround Make ye' not a silent sound Voice of legend comes to be enters receptor port of me~ Gather tongues in vision's spread Rake-of-soul from mountainous refrain Let my ears be filled with wisdom over and over again~ Grant me gift of feathering quill So that I may pen at will All the promises yet to be poured within vessel of me~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ |

Marge: This has such an air of mystery about it. Like secrets from the Pyramids or an incantation from a Maya temple. Really striking! Betty Lou Hebert |

Friends~ Well, I definitely wasn't sure where this one came from ... all I can attest to is that I rounded the corner ... it stopped me in my tracks~ I 'think' it's the new muse, Blesaka, that has been skirting around looking for a place to lay his/her thoughts ... Hmmmmmm ? Pilgrimage~ Thank you so much ... Actually it felt a little 'Nordic or Mystic' to me ... not real sure yet where it's wanting to take me~ Serenity~ LOL ... heard that rattle~ It definitely came in a cadence ... Couldn't help but think of those dudes that stomp around and make music with trash cans and things like that ! I am soooooo bad on names .... ![]() That's how LOUD it came~ Thankee, gal~ Magnus~ Thank you so much~ Enchantress~ You just delight me with your enthusiasm~ *Hugs* with thanks~ BettyLou~ You sure read it right .. it's still a 'mystery' to me too~ Thank you VERY MUCH~ GentleSpirit~ Thank you sweet lady~ SuzieQ~ You know I appreciate you ! *Hugs* ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ |

Marge, this is a SUPERB write!! I can't add anymore to those who have posted replies already, except that for some reason I felt pride while I was reading it. Just because you shared. Kris A bird never flies so high that it can't hit the ground |

Margie girl darling sister of my heart, you have no conception of the difficulties I've had to surmount to leave a reply on this, it is a nightmare, however you are worth the supreme effort. This is such a magnificent penning of your spirit, always you write well, and so often you write brilliantly, never more so than when your spirit walks with the spirits of your heritage. Wonderful writing darling heart utterly utterly wonderful As always Mushy ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Breathe through the heat of our desire |

It's very appropriate that each verse begins with a command... for the rhythm in this makes one sit up and take notice! *S* Excellent work, gal! |

*Shame on me for not having gotten back to those of you who left such captivating replies ... me apologize~ Lyra~ I only felt the presence of Blesaka surrounding me ... maybe so~ Thanks gal~ Kris~ Thank you so much ... I like the thought of that 'pride' thing~ MarshaLove~ You know ... I can't help but think that the 'green ribbons' are somehow attached to this piece .... You think that's possible ?? Thanks hon~ SweetSuthernGal~ That YOU would take notice is enough for me~ ![]() Thank you~ GoodKnight~ Thank you very much~ MartieSis~ Well ... blessed or 'cursed' ... ![]() Sometimes I wonder ..... but I am GREATLY appreciative of the *gifts*~ Devina~ *touched me complete* ...
