Earth's Shore...Wish I May |

On the world’s wide shore I stand alone among starlit skies as silence beds softly on the dew of eve. Flickering light of the firefly dances the silhouette of barked sentinels rustling to the slightest breath of wind. Perched precariously on leafy lofts, crickets play the violin in chirpsody as the flute of hoot echoes in the distance. Falling swiftly... reddish glow, the heated meteor streaks earthbound upon a ray of crescent moon. Wish I may, wish I might... wish upon one star this night. Dance the ball in Belle regale. Wear the slipper...dainty...well... In awe...I stand...as the gleam of twinkle basks upon a tear falling silently upon a trail of stubbled cheek... Wish I may...on this night... |

Magnus, Yup...you are a tender guy. Well written for sure. Excellent. If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again. |

When you wish upon a star.... Now we're headed for the *sighs*... and I am so pleased. ~Smiles, Hugs & Sighs, Nancy~ ~Somewhere in my heart I'm always |

May your wish come true Let a single tear hold secret magic bringing romance near You paint the most wonderful visions that leave one in awe of the talent you have for touching ones emotions....Stunning... |
