Grateful Shadows Do come, thus to link light to dark From trance arises this forgotten spark Of what once was, in romantic dream Of all that binds in woven seams Pluck up thy quill and tend once more To all blue shadows beyond yon door Through the mirrors, beyond the mist As sealed throughout with most ardent kiss Write then of times that seamed our souls When love was real and made one whole Wherein trees would hold the all of us In memory now we are but a trust Hold in the grail all that will live Hold in the shadows the gifts that give Karilea - if I whisper, will you listen? Keeping in mind, I must stand close... |

Karilea These words feel like old lace, fragile, yet forever. |

Karilea...elegantly written, so soft and tender. Maree Beauty of the world which is soon to perish has two edges, one of laughter and one of anguish, cutting the heart asunder. |

Sunshine, How can you consistently capture me in your words, transporting me to different times, and sinking me within them? You have tremendous grace in writing. Enjoyed. Sadie |

"through the mirrors, beyond the mist" This line blew me away. It has so many meanings and made me think for a while which is an accomplishment by anyones standards! ...I like to think that it means, look beyond first impression. Look really hard and you'll see the truth. Excellent write ^*-Kimberley-*^ "Theres no posession, just obsession and growing depression" |

Whence was thy time of maiden's prance before the ball of elegant dance. As windward waves wash o'er the sand and two might walk of hand in hand. Wherein the heart does lie the love beyond the mist, the flight of dove. Beyond the sky and starlit sight upon a steed, one cherished knight. |
