Each night, the emerald skies aglow as cosmic bracelets shimmered And silence washed over a fleeting shadow bearing a rainbow’s pot, a Knight’s chalice….A maiden’s coveted Prize. They came, Riding the whispering winds and crumbling still leaves that desperately hugged the earth’s last grasp of vintage soils lacing The river’s bend as lathered steeds pulled the bit and burst headlong Into the fire’s light with dark eyes aglow….. Calling, waiting to course the river’s winding trail, searching for lost and Lifeless wandering souls. Listening for the soft cry of lingering death amongst the trees as the stones chilled and the faint crunch of a gravel Track stirred a lid….waiting for time to tarry once more, around a Lonesome, winding river’s bend…. |

Magnus~ Loving the all of it ... but this - this - 'Riding the whispering winds' - has a very tender significance 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*~ |
