My Phantoms I have not found the common ground Nor have I found that common sound All I see are fireflies that Twinkle in the night time skies They flicker where I least expect A genuflect without connect And light a corner of the cave The smallest corner of my crave They do not form a link of light A star to guide me in the night They only promise that I may Find my goal of soul some day One cannot live on promised food Nor keep us warm when stripped and nude Yet fireflies that light the night Are to me a common sight Yet still I cannot hear the sound Nor bring the light to light the ground |

oh me thinks this moth is gonna have to respectfully disagree with your closing couplet...youve lit up my life more than a time or two...me thinks your dragonfly IS a dandy Randy firefly. I have not found the common ground I found it...and I been digging in it all weekend...LOL Still doing the landscaping at the house...today is GERANIUM day...LOL *ww* |

Morning Sy.... Well you sure light up a lot of lives around pipland! Loved your morning rhyme... Time for tea? I'll pour. ~Morning hugs, Nancy~ For it was not into my ear you whispered |

Good morning, Mr. T.! Well, one thing is for sure, if I were standing stripped and nude, I'd be thankful if it was only the light of a firefly that was shining upon me! Enjoyed this morning's sonnetic offering! Have a glorious day! EA |
