Mesmerized He stands upon a windy knoll Putting out the ash and coal The last of fires burning light To watch the ending of the night Yet still he sees the misty dew Blurring slowly from his view Her lovely elegance of grace Slowly vanishing into space. He cannot hold her effigy This syzygy of energy He cannot hold this wile of seem Nor can he bring to life this dream He waves his hand a bleary bye And heaves his heart a weary sigh And on his lid a tears veneer As she slowly disappears Each dark he dreams a fire bright To seem her back to him each night |

"He cannot hold this wile of seem Nor can he bring to life this dream" "He waves his hand a bleary bye And heaves his heart a weary sigh" You know why I call you Sy? 'Cause you make me ... sigh ... with writings like this. ![]() I think this may be my favorite piece of yours yet, Sy. What a beautifully flowing, mystic piece .... wonderful phrasing throughout. Just lovely! ![]() Best wishes and hugs, /Kit |

Good Morning, Mr. T.! If he were to place a piece of Morganite (Pink Beryl) in the palm of his left hand--if he is right-handed--before falling to sleep, he will attract her love and will be able to keep it. Morganite opens the heart to receive unconditional love and healing. It is a powerful stone for manifesting love. ![]() Sweet dreams... EA |

I know the pull of mesmerize How just one sight captures our eyes I know it when I see your name Succumb to draw without a shame Knowing I will find again Treasures waiting from your pen. |
