Gentle Breeze It seems that time has turned an inner dial Always the echo of some soft forgotten song Lifting the hem of my dress, as I hoped you would I thought of you, and ached to mold within your arms Enchanting, the visage of summer charms Found me spellbound in the pages of my own dreams Letting open the heart of me, letting in a giving sound Camelot does not exist beyond the mist of amethyst But this adoring state, this kind relate is why I journeyed To wear only promise for the hands of tenderness Then slipping down the sun from my shoulders To hold you in the valley of the woman I’ve become Copyright Kkh 6/17/06 |

This is really lovely. My favorite part: "Camelot does not exist beyond the mist of amethyst" Could there be the heart of a rhymer in there? |

KathleenKathleen~ 'this kind relate is why I journeyed To wear only promise for the hands of tenderness' I ADORE the all of this ... and that 'lifted hem' didn't escape notice either !! *Huglets* ~*Marge*~ ~*The sound of a kiss is not as strong as that of a cannon, but it's echo endures much longer*~ |

Really superb. It's got a lightness of touch and grace that makes me a bit jealous. I agree with Jess 'does not exist beyond the mist of amethyst' is a splendid use of assonance and sibilance. Beautifully done. |

stunning write It seems that time has turned an inner dial Always the echo of some soft forgotten song Lifting the hem of my dress, as I hoped you would I thought of you, and ached to mold within your arms that says it all, and most elegantly I might add... |
