In flood, emotions write their name upon my face Telling tale in hues of unison, sins query and implore As twilight, the unassuming masquerade of vision and quest It’s dalliance to mold and shape the highlight of mood on my cheeks You come, in drape of night to summon me A meld of mind that melts the gentle white about my feet So strong in your convictions, tempered steel Yet I know you in another voice, another softer place of dreams Your heart tells a different tale, in contrast to your serrated side The coolness of your walk, sets a fire deep within the lost of me Where I am drawn here with you, sitting nearer in this silent pause Traveling beside you in the passing of some hidden despair And yet, this heat that builds in flush across my baritone skies Capacity that far and again swells to fit the overflow of feelings A part of me, consoled and consoling, in the moments yet to come In flood, escapes the fury and the passion of my truth, my only truth Yet to lay within your hands the softness love has sighed Uncertain, as the wild child in me keeps your stride Impatient, yet discerning every movement far and wide As I watch you time forgets us, that these colors coincide Copyright Kkh 12/10/05 |

"Yet I know you in another voice, another softer place of dreams" Can I just tell you that line just blew me away....I've never really told anyone I wish I had thought of that line before, but this time I have to admit a little envy. Beautiful poem, Kathleen....I also especially liked the last stanza. ![]() |

TD, I love how you bring him alive through your contrast! Very pretty... "You come, in drape of night to summon me A meld of mind that melts the gentle white about my feet So strong in your convictions, tempered steel Yet I know you in another voice, another softer place of dreams" misc |

Yet to lay within your hands the softness love has sighed Uncertain, as the wild child in me keeps your stride Impatient, yet discerning every movement far and wide As I watch you time forgets us, that these colors coincide Wow !! hugs, Chris ![]() |
