Amor de Callado Sombre
(Love of Silent Shadows)

Husk of twilight filtered rare,
Grains of gold in blend with time,
Grapes have twined and ever bear
This love of silent shadows clime.

Hear the hush beneath the roar
From this beating of my heart,
Like an ocean's bounty, shored,
This love of silent shadows impart.

Slowly the misty fog enshrouds
The sands and lands and all of time,
Hiding us in the grayest clouds,
This love of silent shadows finds

The all of me now supplicant
To the soul who has captured me,
Now enjoined in sweet content
This love of silent shadows' reverie.

Break not this spell, this turn so fine,
But let it linger within your heart,
And taste again these lips of wine
Drink deep lest silent shadows depart.

Poetry is not an opinion expressed...
it is a song that rises from a bleeding wound
...or a smiling mouth.

Within these lines of verse so warm and fine
I feel a rhythmic pulse in ev'ry line.
Such suppleness of verse enchants my soul.
In shadows still, I ponder on my whole.

Through rubble and trouble and dark of night
The yawn of a dawn will hasten the light

this makes me sigh for its beauty

Is there any doubt that Karilea is beautiful? And sensual, too. Whoever it is who shares her life, he is indeed a lucky man.
