From your sweet lips I harvest shadows’ tears, Pure dew drops on the parquet of my soul; I tread softly, and there your face appears Where your song of love within my heart does toll; There a candle’s flame so brightly shines; it casts A golden glow, where no light had been — Yet unquenched remains through the torrid blasts Of catabatic wind, that sweeps unseen Through the weathered shutters of my heart — There your sweet voice sings a nightingale’s song, So clear and bright, my heart’s red sea does part — And now your voice and mine combined belong: As one combined our song shall reach the stars In passions’ ageless and immortal bars.

One of the things I like best about good poets, are when they throw in a word that is not common in every day language... and you did just that. You also wrote a beautiful poem. Thank you, CG. |

You make my heart sing~ You are the song my heart sings, it is singing this moment~pittter-patter! hear it beat, cling and clatter? ~Oh how I love the way you weave our magic words! Spellbinding~Thank You! ~ARH "Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take - but by the moments that take our breath away." |

Sunshine - thank you, I will endeavor to do more....of both. ARH - “...hear it beat, cling and clatter?...” Yes I do - and feel it stone and mortar ramparts shatter... Thank you everyone for the kind comments. CG |
