He Writes She eavesdropped past his poetry envisioned the man beyond his time perceived his whisperings as he spoke of sounds that tolled his chime ~ Of his daydream, she felt him deep he, never knowing of her hold as in her wake, or in her sleep she gently cupped his words of gold Oh, spells are cast, enchantment spread she heard his mind through his touch of ink to parchment or by pencil lead and drew envisioned dreams and such Reading through words of quiet calm she danced alight his sequins of sound for they beheld her required balm and wrapped, enrapt, them all around O mellifluous, then softer still coursed his heartstrung words to her by tick of time he lined her thrill as if he knew, and loved her pure, for by time’s reality, his candle bright to diminish dim, to dark surrender truth seized close by her finest light of heart’s rote evoked his splendor. She eavesdropped past his poetry as spells are cast, enchantment spread ~ O mellifluous, then softer still, she laid back the coverlets for their bed and of his daydream, she felt him deep reading through words of quiet calm and pulls his spirit to her in sleep as his words rest in her palm |

Is there any higher praise of for one then a poem about them, let alone one as exquisite? A lucky man to earn such devine words. Thank you for sharing Lady.. |

Perchance, the Lady was reading the recently published book of poems by Balladeer? tehe I believe I know whereof you speak. The words of love, written by the poets of long ago, stand the test of time. A lovely way to slip into slumber, reading the fruits of their poetic labors. Who were these men behind the pen? They can be whoever we want them to be...... ~ Sweet dreams... EA |
