There's a dragon in the sky, its head is made of clouds, there's moonlight in its mane, all I am allowed to do, is to dream not to touch, to want not to ride, for it isn't really there at all. On a sheet of shadowed paper in a wooden frame askew, the muted colored truth doesn't show the glow of you, the sunlight in your hair; the smile doesn't touch the shadows aren't warm, you're not here. ©2003 by icebox |

Heart touching with a sadness that hurts to read. You convey emotion so well, icebox. |

IceBox~ Very poignant write, indeed~ Last evening, as I stood watching the moon-in-full ... I swear to you I saw - 'There's a dragon in the sky, its head is made of clouds, there's moonlight in its mane, I could only think of the Oriental meaning of an eclipsing time of the moon when their belief is that the dragon is eating the moon~ Couldn't believe my eyes when I read your post~ My, my ! Thank you~ *Huglets* ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ |

This is so beautiful. I can't really find the words to describe how this piece made me feel. For what it's worth, I love it. |

in a wooden frame askew, the muted colored truth doesn't show the glow of you Some things are just too good to be true! *sigh* You convey so much through your writing icebox. Much enjoyed! |

Ice, Oh, so sad. You have spoke of her before I believe. I am sorry, but thank you for sharing her memory with us. Patricia |
