"Moon In A Black Leather Chair" The hearth is hot, a fire is burning friendly within Keeping the shadows, on the wall at bay The cactus sleeps in watery dreams Dreaming of a true love far away across a celestial sea Outside, beyond the window, the moon sits on high Bathing the shadowy world below, in her subtle, silver rain To a story book page, in a black leather chair A fabled knight clad in shining steel Returning to his love To live happily ever after Oh if only it were real The cactus stirs, up from the depths comes to wake out of his dreams Unseen eyes reflect the moons eerie grace She is more than she seems 11/13/1996 |

"The cactus stirs, up from the depths comes to wake out of his dreams Unseen eyes reflect the moons eerie grace She is more than she seems" Oh Gabriel. This is so lovely. |

ds "Outside, beyond the window, the moon sits on high Bathing the shadowy world below, in her subtle, silver rain" Outside my window is a place I go too, for the moon and rain and so many other things with the wealth or my imagination included. Loved your view! |

The hearth is hot, a fire is burning friendly within Keeping the shadows, on the wall at bay The cactus sleeps in watery dreams Dreaming of a true love far away across a celestial sea Outside, beyond the window, the moon sits on high Bathing the shadowy world below, in her subtle, silver rain This reminds me of sitting by a warm cozy fire and listening to the rain outside and the crackle of the fire inside. This is lovely, a very much enjoyed piece of writing. seek the flame within yourself |

Gabe, this is amazing because it immediately made me see a writer looking out the window sitting at a typewriter wondering what to write of. and succeeding. |

tThis was amazing, you have the talent of taking the words we've felt and writting them down reminding us we've felt them. Did that make sense? Well I felt every word you've written here and I loved every minute of it. |

You crafted this beautifully and I loved reading it...the moon with "her subtle, silver rain" -- cool beauty! And such covert "eyes." What story book pages your poem leaves. I am enchanted! ~ Karen ~ |
