Grateful Shadows Do come, thus to link light to dark From trance arises this forgotten spark Of what once was, in romantic dream Of all that binds in woven seams Pluck up thy quill and tend once more To all blue shadows beyond yon door Through the mirrors, beyond the mist As sealed throughout with most ardent kiss Write then of times that seamed our souls When love was real and made one whole Wherein trees would hold the all of us In memory now we are but a trust Hold in the grail all that will live Hold in the shadows the gifts that give Karilea - if I whisper, will you listen?Keeping in mind, I must stand close... |

Though I am basically a 'minimalistic constructionist' (and the style of this 'write' is so very different from my approach),....I am compelled to say that the following (to me) is a grand example of the pure distilled essence of 'romanticism' at its finest!: "Pluck up thy quill and tend once more To all blue shadows beyond yon door Through the mirrors, beyond the mist As sealed throughout with most ardent kiss Write then of times that seamed our souls When love was real and made one whole" not that is is 'important'....but, I would simply change the word 'one' to 'us' in the last line shown above. excellent 'write'! |

Karilea~ There is just enough soft light to see beyond the edge of the shadows~ Lovely~ *Huglets* ~*Marge*~ ~*The sound of a kiss is not as strong as that of a cannon, but it's echo endures much longer*~ |
