Array ( [sid] => 100480 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Reflecting [time] => 2005-07-07 19:23:18 [hometext] => [bodytext] => The dusky hours
like birds flew by,
as lightly and as free..

Ten thousand stars
were in the sky,
ten thousand on the sea..

And every wave
with rippled face
that leapt upon the air

had caught a star
in its embrace
its beauty in each single place
and held it trembling there.

Sweetest heart,

this may sound odd, but I think you should have posted this as
"love or romantic poetry". Just, wow. It is so completely beautiful
and romantic, darling, that it has moved me to tears. ~ truly

I was swept away by the metaphor alone, but the rhyming and
the flow was masterful. (To say the very least). Oh my, there
is so much in here. Much more than the words themselves.

I would, if I could, place two souls in this piece. One, a star,
and the other, a wave- each holding onto the other .. trembling
in utter and complete, beautiful reflection.

oh gosh .. *sigh sigh sigh*

Too beautiful. Too magnificent, for words, my love.

~Breezy
