Come this eve Veils are thinner And curves show that are Beyond our touch yet entice As if in an eastern dance with your eyes The grace that beckons me into mystery that lies behind Show me the shadows And all that they hold Dormant perhaps Or fey in understand With hope I might catch the corners of movement Swift to disappear I’ve built a fire in backlight of all That comes between And know some grey shrinks When viewed by name So, I fear not the demons you say Lie close to you Here is a robe of sky Dark, from the weave of hands That blended stars to make heaven And left open the warp So such things as you would hide Are not trapped in the weight Put it on… we will begin… late I will watch you dance this night And catch the darker parts of understand As you in all the flicker of flame Spin free the dragons teeth Of this our personal sin |

Ron no matter what you write I always seem to be able to learn something, be it about writing or life in general, I always take something with me after reading your words. Thank you for that.... |

We think the veils are thinner, but they are not. We are thinner. |

Ron "Here is a robe of sky Dark, from the weave of hands That blended stars to make heaven And left open the warp So such things as you would hide Are not trapped in the weight Put it on…" What a lovely garment you write...etherial, yet also sexy. Enjoyed this! |

Here is a robe of sky Dark, from the weave of hands That blended stars to make heaven And left open the warp So such things as you would hide Are not trapped in the weight Put it on we will begin What a shimmering fabric your words have woven... Excellent write, Cap'n! *S* [This message has been edited by suthern (11-01-2003 06:08 AM).] |
