My Beloved

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Silver this chalice; placing it atop the mantel to stoke the fire which burns ~ In red the wine while night spreads it's cloak, and frost becomes the glass Amid that but another autumns repose; bare the branches dripping to grasp Visions which etch her beauties name, about the rose clad windows pane Adorned with day two hearts she claims; while waltzing up this path.... Sage the vase where petals fall, in joyous shadows upon the twineful wall Pirouetting amid silent streams of light; her knock, her voice, my souls delight ~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ...."Gold The Chalice of, My Beloved" *

You write beautifully. This is the type of poetry that was the rage in the 1800's. An eloquence now overlooked by many save those born of the early 1900's. Public vocabulary isn't what it used to be and a turn of phrase is lost on the youth of today.
