A Shaft of Light I rode a shaft of light to sea A road of clouds to fantasy Through lifts imaginations view Drifted with the winds that blew And there I found a make believe Beyond my wildest minds conceive With azure brooks of choral sighs And flowers holding butterflies Pure magic in a humidor A transience of overawe Of silver shards of moons good night Bright angels playing in the light I palmed hands in sonnets prayer To keep the vision always there Within the clouds of fantasy To always fly my mind to sea And to this day each time I wile I always find a Christmas Isle. |

And there I found a make believe Beyond my wildest minds conceive With azure brooks of choral sighs And flowers holding butterflies Pure magic in a humidor A transience of overawe Of silver shards of moons good night Bright angels playing in the light I palmed hands in sonnets prayer To keep the vision always there Within the clouds of fantasy To always fly my mind to sea And to this day each time I wile I always find a Christmas Isle. ==================================== Could the imagery in this be any cooler???? With azure brooks of choral sighs And flowers holding butterflies Of silver shards of moons good night Bright angels playing in the light Stunning images... "silver shards of moons good night"(yer so kewl) and could these lines be any cooler.. Pure magic in a humidor A transience of overawe I palmed hands in sonnets prayer To keep the vision always there I do so love your poetic mind... and you just put a whole new spin on "Christmas in July" with this gem of pen. Beautiful write Stinkylove... So..does Randy pull the sleigh? |

Seymour darling heart ahhhhh I never know if I’m going to get back in the door when I leave if I’m going to get back in. When I eventually do I’m so happy, that I get the chance to float in dreams and golden schemes where dragons play at the break of day and where Seymour calls come with me to the land of dreams over the sea. As always darling heart superb writing from a master artist, I love it utterly, but of course you know that Keep a place for me darling man there on the isle of dreamers smile Love and warm stuff As always Mushy Breathe through the heat of our desire Thy coolness and they balm Let sense be dumb let flesh retire Speak through the earthquake wind and fire [This message has been edited by Marsha (07-29-2002 11:13 AM).] |

I palmed hands in sonnets prayer To keep the vision always there Within the clouds of fantasy To always fly my mind to sea Very beautiful writing, here...Sy... I love clouds of fantasy.... To me, they often look like mashed potatoes, I guess thats because I think about food a lot. ~ hugs and beautiful clouds Lyra |
