A Wind-Blown Song

A lyric drawn of passion’s longing, lit, shall flow in spirit to thy avid mind; faint apparitions swirl and bait thy wit with drifting light, a joint rapport to find. Soft silky ribbons braid a chiffon song, of gloss and gold as bright as twilight star, that soars on high on winds that sail along, to carry forth a wish to lands afar. Anticipation rising with dawn’s glow, as wait, for now, is all that I can do. Oh can, of windblown song, a kinship grow? and can that song of one now sing for two? Of windblown song across a world so vast I bid it sing an aria to last. Originally for Nikko Palmario's 'Without U and ME' but since edited & now has just one little 'm' ;)

the second thing (after WOW!!!) that popped into mind after I read this was, "WHY??" ----super darn to the nth power Sharon :( :( :( ---your sonnet was amazing! I think I read it thrice in one sitting, gave me chills too--I completely forgot the U, M & E's in this one--makes me think life without them could be possible---you sure rose excellently to the challenge with this, but i just feel so deflated that it wasn't entered...:( ----back to judging i go...soupmail, hugs...

Oh, my gosh, unbelievable that you could do such a long poem without using one E. Good grief!! And it is so beautiful. MY gosh, you are going to get first place SECOND time in a row with her. And also, once again, you wrote on a theme very much like one that I have called "Love song for the Universe"(must post sometime)/ The line about the ribbons braiding a chiffon song was pure magic!
