She waits for me She waits for me in Samarkand An Island made of timeless sand A fantasy of argosy A wily wit of ecstasy She stays within an Ivy tower Like the beauty of a flower And offers me a phantoms lie Made of dreamers earth and sky She is the nectar of my mind Sweet of drink warm of bind The dew that come with ever dawn The sun that wakes me every morn A creation of my longing id Pandora’s box without a lid A spirit that is not a goal But is to me my very soul. Oh Samarkand, oh Samarkand I place my ring upon thy hand. |

"A creation of my longing id Pandora’s box without a lid A spirit that is not a goal But is to me my very soul." Now, if that isn't one heck of a stanza, I guess there never will be one!!!! Much enjoyed. ......jo |
