There Is a Space

There’s a space in this world that harbors light All the time there is an absence of night This is sure a beautiful, lovely land There’s a mist from a waterfall so grand Seems to be produced by secrets of might The section of greatness is surely tight I know that it is pure, and is quite right A place where things come together and band There is a space The aura produced is a certain white There is no evil, no need for respite There is also no sections that has sand No places produced that are surely bland My heart keeps this land, the land of delight There is a space Russell Sivey Not a traditional 8 syllable Rondeau, because this one is 10 syllables long

There is a place (you need only take the time to find it). Loved your title! It made me feel like I was invited into a secret place that few knew about. I believe rondeau and rondel are very under-appreciated writing forms. The way they are put together is always so elegant to read...

Russell mystical and enchanting images you have conveyed in your penned words. 'My heart keeps this land, the land of delight' I love this line. We all need keep this kind of delight in our heart. I enjoyed it very much. Warm Smiles, Connie
