Sanctuaries Shawl Sanctuaries shawl of lace A rose and a sprawl of space Sitting in a timeless jar A flower shining from afar Memories of lighted wicks Melted wax of candlesticks Shadows dancing on a stain Dancing on a former reign Covered with a blankets blind Subject to a state of mind Sleeping in a well of wish Sweet as honey from a dish Fed upon in times of need Sprouting seeds of former deed Glories of a timeless cast Brought to shore in mimes of past A widow’s walk along the shore Nothing less and nothing more |

Covered with a blankets blind Subject to a state of mind Sleeping in a well of wish Sweet as honey from a dish wow Sy, incredibly written, makes me ponder, where in the world would we be in our lives without all these times and emotions. Beautifully written....thank you! |

Much enjoyed the quiet images... You have such a nice way of bringing your words to life. "Nothing less and nothing more" That really did it for me. Good Sunday morning to you Sy~ |

Sanctuaries shawl of lace A rose and a sprawl of space ~*~ Memories of lighted wicks Melted wax of candlesticks ~*~ Shadows dancing on a stain Dancing on a former reign ~*~ ======================== Im smiling at you cross the miles for those delightful couplets of clever word play and rhymes...each needs to be read as their own entity for their imagery and insight. Shadows dancing on a stain youre so cool. Sorry I missed you yesterday...its hectic here...a moths work is never done. |
