It is in the Silence the Poet Dies (A Villanelle) Her heart leaves a lyrical stain Flowing with ink of the night Bleeding a song wrought of pain Love's vigil can not forever sustain A soul thats shy from the light Her heart leaves a lyrical stain Needing to scream, but will refrain A voice wounded by whispered plight Bleeding a song wrought of pain And in dreams on wings of the crane She will find mercy in freedom of flight Her heart leaves a lyrical stain In secret wars the one who's left slain Is she alone, lost to the fight Bleeding a song wrought of pain Without audience the poetry will wane Slowly her vision shall fade from sight Her heart leaves a lyrical stain Bleeding a song wrought of pain. |

And in dreams on wings of the crane She will find mercy in freedom of flight Her heart leaves a lyrical stain So beautiful and so very touching! Love, Margherita |

And in dreams on wings of the crane She will find mercy in freedom of flight Her heart leaves a lyrical stain cast your dreams onto the birds that fly over horizons we can only surmise where they must take them very lovely the way this wove together |

you have taken a difficult style (at least, in my opinion) and made it come alive with ease |

muted, this is wonderful. I always admire poets who tackle difficult poetry forms and do them well. This villanelle is perfect in every way |

Wow Dawn this is really very beautiful, I wish I could write a Villanelle, especially as magnificent as you do. Maree Keeping this one The clouds never expect it when it rains, but the sea, changes colours, but the sea, does not change. |
