Overlooking me, from heights on splendor meadow The quiet thirst of empty spoken blue, yet painted yellow That somehow caught my heart in drift to steer a turn for turn And suddenly the softest touch became a Knight to yearn The chimes that sparkled through the wheat a sweet and fragrant pale Sent capture for my favor bidding of once lost detail Then lingered in the hour favored fluttering of harp Returning in an echoed smile that clung in talents sharp So deep in thought, his eyes cast down to walk a lonely road Returned to me a music once forbidden in the rise it flowed That I might hear his heartbeat just beneath his armored chest And I found my head was resting up against his pounding quest Overlooking, ever watchful as his arm around and near Not expecting or rejecting yet protecting of his fear That disarmed the need to vanquish, as my own home land alight Then returning to the victor gentle stroke upon this Knight Copyright Kkh 2/2/04 |

Kathleen, don't know how I missed the beauty. It must have been one of the days that I wasn't here very much. I'm glad that I found it today. ![]() Hugs ![]() Ethel |

I missed it, only from not having replied.. Shame on me, for this is a beaut. Love the rhyme, the vision it gives me....and of course I always love poetry that has a Knight within the mist of it.... Well Done K. |
