Holding On To My Fantasy

Holding on to my fantasy Enchanting like heaven, Her melodious voice Found a home in my heart, So I followed her path Engrossed in her lyrics, Fantasizing a beautiful face Behind the sound of music, But I turned back quickly Holding on to my fantasy, In case God made a choice Between voice and beauty.

We tend to fall in love with some one's voice.....without seeing the person singing. But the voice may not necessarily match with the person from whom it comes. So it is better to have an after thought ! Beautiful, Vijay !

Well done Vijay. I agree with others, maybe both and yet, beauty is in the heart and soul too.

Vijay I am seeing a pattern here and I for one see beyond the words.. This is a fantastic rhyming poem, it is short, but the verses are very good... Voice and beauty sometimes are the same choice...

You are right Silent One--there is beauty in voice..many thanks.
