Within the Scrolls

you usher me with the allure of your muse on drafts of featherless wings through the breadth of night's air away in the distance of dreams i am swept into the depths of imagery that bestir my imagination and arouse my ardent desire wrapping me in a blanket of verse that becalms my weary soul as words fall down tenderly encompassing me with the caress of thoughts that trace the edges of my existence with the whispers of your voice overheard as i read each poem scrolled i lose myself within the lines as i send wishes adrift on stars on the drafts of featherless wings and fade in the distance of dreams

Some poets are just like that. Their words tempt and allure and touch us in so many different ways. Your poetry my friend is like this...I always look forward to something new from you. Beautifully done.

Thank you my friend...my muse was in a romantic mood tonight...perhaps because some contests called for it, this one just came out of nowhere... hugs
