Beyond the Pale Stoically he nethers my world completely unfurls my sails as he propels he prevails through the gales goes once then again beyond the pale and I would sail away with him he sights me highlights me then cleverly, wittily delights me brightens my way every day sings the song of my heart delights in my art gallantly adds chivalry to bravery takes a bit of daring puts in all the caring and I would illuminate his night I look for him I see his soul young in old a bard of gold old he’ll never be the graying is just a way to see a fantasy of haunted light and I would treasure him tenderly For his soul glows rose O do concur with me this coveted man captures poetic plan painting in motion safe harbor from ocean harbor thee my art steal command seize my hand and I would listen to learn again for he’s stolen mine heart all along in the course of prairie song it’s not wrong to long, to subsist like this, written bliss smells sweet and then to breath him in so to thee from whom I derive all that makes me alive for it is how you play the words that pay the tribute kind now please don’t mind me when I say ~*~ You may have your way with your words as you discern ~ that they do not escape unheard but beg to be spoken, so solid gold slips these tokens from my lips to your ear hear me now in whisper soft for you wing me aloft and raise me again to new fancies of height finger with me the stars at night under a pale moon’s faint light to receive sun’s delight all these the reasons be why you linger beyond the pale ~*~ Revised, Repost Circa 2002 Karilea If I whisper, will you listen?... I would rather be silent and write, than speak loudly and be bound. KRJ |

Sissie....There are many men at passions that this could apply to, me thinks. And, I would add my voice to yours, can I please? |

ROFL @ Jamie... whose antics gave me my voice back... for Sunshine's poem took my hands from the keyboard... and I'm not sure she could have heard my applause. *S* |

the phone rang while I was reading this... it was my sweetheart, who hates poetry... he wanted me to look up something for him... I said wait.. I'm reading. He said I need it now. I said SO DO I! HUSH! and much too good for the likes of his red neck *wink*, so I will keep it under my pillow and dream!! Caroline He who wants a rose must respect the thorn. |

Sunshine, I read this when you posted it but I couldn't find words to express my awe. I though if I waited a day or two I would but it hasn't happened yet. All I can say is beautiful! :-) |
