“MOONLIGHT RAINBOWS” by Bill Charles ~~~~ I wonder why I feel like I do at times, when I walk with you holding hands… It’s a feeling I have deep inside me, my beating heart calls, as it expands… A path we follow through the forest, listening to sounds of the warm night… All I want is to hold you close again, for you to whisper, things are alright… Time seems to flow slower, as we stroll, gentle whispers shared, words spoken… Faces meet tenderly, one to another, vows to each other, never to abandon… Moonlight rainbows seen in the dark, into the evening they seem to stay… See the shadows gather into darkness, yet fear not, for I will not leave away… ~~~~ |

Your poem was enchanting. It gave me the same feeling as beetoven's moonlight Sonata. A comforting and thoughtfull peice that leaves the reader pondering. |

Standing alone on the terrace her face lit by a single lamp rain splashing her gently her dress transparent caused by damp watchful eyes appraised her from inside as she and the rain danced as one the silhouette the tapping of her heels synchronised beating of his heart had begun completely unaware of the vision she made she lifted her face to the light he glimpsed a smile and heard her laugh turning to face him - he felt passion ignite The voice telling him to take this chance he opened the door with almost no sound as they moved together and began to dance orchestrated raindrops splashing the ground A single owl whispered in the night air bodies locking - retreating then advancing silk slipping off leaving her bare In the moonlight, shadows dancing... ® RainbowGirl I do hope you don't mind, but your poem was so enchanting :-) Don't ask me where I'm going, just listen when I'm gone and far away you'll hear me singing softly to the dawn. |

I knew I'd like this one from the title... what a beautiful image that presents! *S* And I was right... this is just lovely. *S* RG: That's too beautiful to be hidden in a response. *S* And it's so good to see your words! |

Ahhh, BC, you get my heart pumping in the morning. This is, as are all your romance poems, delightful. Hugs this bright and glorious Fall day. Marti Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away. |

There is a peacefulness and security translated through this poem that I found comforting. The images of walking through the woods, moonlight and a voice saying that everything's alright...perfect. No matter how good looking she is... someone, somewhere is glad she's gone. |
