In Fragrant Mists

In the hall of clocks and mirrors,
Winds of time bring fragrant whispers,
Of midnights of magic moonlight,
And reflections of past delights!

Of golden days when lost in blooms,
And dancing joy in summer rooms!
A blur of green in woodland scene,
And the purple twilights velveteen.

Time's reversed to infinity,
As ensues with sweet memory.
And heartsongs waft, out of mauve mists,
And all life's seasons coexist!

Evelyn, Very nice halls in this poem. You still have the magic pen I see~~'A blur of green in woodland scene, And the purple twilights velveteen.' Would like to visit there someday, even if only in misty daydream. -Richard
