All the dancing dreams of days to come Those pleasant sunny afternoons by the pale blue sea Flowers that summer spread across the field Smell of lilacs in the hall Winter castles in the park Autumn birches on the hill All distilled to a single room— roses splashed on pitted walls http://www.geocities.com/grandanor1/thefour1.html |

Beautiful images. Quite the ending. Not sure where you're going with it but it evokes all sorts of ideas backed by images. Eric |

Eric, Thank you. This thing, apropos the daughters, was written after re-reading: Nicholas and Alexandra by Robert K. Massie ISBN: 0345438310 A sensitive and intimate account of the last Czar and his family. Excellent book, (buy it used at Amazon cheap). http://members.tripod.com/~Pharaoh30/fancyduchesses.gif http://members.tripod.com/~Pharaoh30/index-13.html |

"All distilled to a single room— roses splashed on pitted walls" Well done! Remember the rumors that one of the girls lived? "cast me gently into the morning, for the night has been unkind" |
