Dust I sweep my dust into a heap And pat it down to go to sleep And asked the wind to leave it there A sigh that holds my love and care A phantom lives within the dust A knight that rides in armored rust Seeking heaven and its worth Since his birth upon this earth He’s ridden far and wide the scene Even ridden in his dream Ridden down his every lead Alas they all have gone to seed. Both head of knight and horse are down His face is fixed into a frown He sings a song to keep him cheer He sings out loud my love is here As favor that is pinned his mail Points in breeze where he must trail. |

I sweep my dust into a heap And pat it down to go to sleep And asked the wind to leave it there A sigh that holds my love and care Oh...I so love this. Just lovely... Patricia |

I sweep my dust into a heap And pat it down to go to sleep And asked the wind to leave it there A sigh that holds my love and care ********* The only dust I can find is on my pillows from lack of sleep. Wonderful lead in verse and as always, you feed the mind to begin wondering where it is going to lead. ********* Both head of knight and horse are down His face is fixed into a frown He sings a song to keep him cheer He sings out loud my love is here As favor that is pinned his mail Points in breeze where he must trail. ************ Excellent writing from beginning to end but the above lines really give much to this piece. It is always a pleasure to read your works and this one is no exception. Well done sir. |

If at first you don't succeed..try try again. It's not over 'til it's over. As long as there is breath there's still a chance for what this knight seeks. I love reading this!! SharaRose @-->-- Of sound, and speech let all lift the hearer! |

Sy...I don't know how these slip by me, but I sure do enjoy uncovering them later. Agreeing with Martie...poetic gold... If you judge people, you have no time to love them. |
