Crimson Etchings

I hope to grace this page today 
With  musings from my soul
And write between the lines
The greatest story every told
In trails of crimson etchings 
Bleeding from an open heart
As line by line  my inhibitions
Simply fall apart

A spirit free from earthly bonds
Oblivious to  time
Whilst drifting through the annals
Of something so sublime
As daylight turns again to night
To break another dawn
As I and my muse 
Write... on and on and on

Ah, you must be one of the "Midnight Writers," Lainey. Welcome to the club! You always "grace" pages with thought-provoking words from your heart, and this is no exception. So nice to hear from you again, Lainey. I hope you are doing well. You have a masterpiece of "crimson etchings" on your canvas today. Hugs, Carolyn
