A Willow Wept |

Silence lay heavily upon the tremble and caught the quavering sigh of many nights shared with fireflies and floating moons... Time to dream of other days when the shiver of one’s skin melded with the giggle of one’s soul. When the cotton ball floated aimlessly on silk covered winds and lodged against a faded oak fence...awaiting a smile that felt immense...and a tear floated earthward on a carpet of clouds. Bring to my yearn the bearer of a silhouette that one’s grasp begs for...and then, only then shall the waters still upon the pond. For a willow wept for thee. |

Magnus~ The delicacy of this thought - 'When the cotton ball floated aimlessly on silk covered winds and lodged against a faded oak fence...awaiting a smile that felt immense...and a tear floated earthward on a carpet of clouds.' - whimpers with just a whisper of a *sigh*~ You are word-beautiful to me~ *Huglets* ~*Marge*~ ~*The sound of a kiss is not as strong as that of a cannon, but it's echo endures much longer*~ |

Time to dream of other days when the shiver of one’s skin melded with the giggle of one’s soul. The loss of such brings a weep... every time we realize such times belong now only to dreams. Superb write! *S* |
