Oh friend of night and darkness dwell, amongst the skies where comets soar. Amongst the stealth of dawn and night as moonbeams dust a wooded floor. And gathered up a bottle full Each jeweled delight in lumined stir An onyx bed of evening still In gaze her eyes eclipsed in blur And from the flask of crystal sheer unto the palm of silken feel A drop shall fall and fill from tears that which shall come of one's appeal. Yet there returns enchantment's call To twinkle skies of distant dream No matter what takes turn at all Alight in more than it may seem. And from the flight of nightly air a sigh shall grace the moistened lip of she who dreams in slumber’s flair and from the glass partakes a sip. Her eyes closed softly might partake The certain pleasures given in. Yet as the stars to slumber wake, The morn assures that night has been And from the chill of Winter’s eve a fire shall burn within the breast of she as dreams do wrest and leave before the morn is born and blessed. ...as midnight broaches... |

Thanx to each of you for the kind replies... and a special thanx to my little partner who graces me with a talent that is far beyond my own...though she won't admit that! Thanx K. for the moments, always a pleasure, even when I have to use trickery..hehe |
