Silent Repose

Slumber beseeched this sight which closed

In warmth of silence to brush repose....

Silkened choirs of soft voices heard

Scions whispers gracing ivories notes ~

As carriages gliding atop sweet serenities

Keys as visions amid these their dreams

In violet hues composed upon the candescent walls

Awakening vistas once held dormant inside

Portraitures, panoramic blinds....

Reciprocating their eye shadow etchings these, cosmetic designs

Until, slumber beseeched this sight which closed

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

In warmth of silence, to brush repose ~

I am trying to forgive, John. Celene has, but the remarks left for my dear friend Dane Ann wounded her very much. And I am very loyal to her.

I'll leave that com, just cause, it was a different time dear one. If you ever want me to remove "just ask", I do not know all things, if people do not tell me, how am I to know. outta the house, guests and their wantings me to realize so much about myself, he said dongnut and coffee?! wrong moment in my life, especially these temptings as of late, I told him to give the doughnut to a bum, He said "I WILL, that's a good IDEA.GONE.BACK TO MY FIRST LOVE not my best friend!sorry, drama
