Night’s Negligee Night clings its negligee through mists of cold And gently wraps the lovers’ warm embrace Whilst whisp’ring stars their cadence calls of old Didst bear them witness in that blessed place. Bespeak of love, oh, knighted tongue of night With brilliant rhapsody unchanged by naught That lovers in such hallowed places might Unmask the sacred source of love o’erwrought. The hidden heart of love is precious still To pure of heart and, yet, still pure of soul So night-caressed and suff’ring wintry chill These lovers in her sweet embrace art whole. As Night’s sweet ambiguity revealed— Through pain of love, a lover’s heart is healed. |

but do we ever really heal, without scar tissue? |

I am so very impressed with your work. This verse is beautiful, ryhme, meter, flow, and message. Ah...to know love again, to melt the winter ice of what was before and could be again beautiful. Understanding that one must step lightly, as not to slip and fall. I must say this is what I have taken from this piece, perhaps because this is what I am going through in my own life. A note to Dixie (Passing Shadows)...I don't know if the scar tissue remains or not (surfacing as a memory)but I do think once trust settles in, that memory will fade in the dust. My friend, that is my most sincere wish for you. Patricia |
