Woman

To look into the eyes of lovely itself, and dream a thousand days of her smile, and call the millenium barren without her, tall, plush walk..... strides in the naked night.... Moons waiting to delight, the fluff-fluttered silk of her waxen wings; a million suns could not melt.... But her hero upon the hill, and make sweet surrender her arms; and wanting her touch to love, in a midnight grove, stroll the lush orchard, with flowers in her hand..... To music at home, dancing into bedrooms.... and dreamy little love lands.... For all the mysteries of a woman in her hand, (she held)

Dear Keith, I think I've said it before, but your work emulates that of the finest in the British Romantic Period. People like Yeats, Keats and Byron have a similar style. What a beauty you have here -- don't let her get away! Love, Carolyn

Keith I like the rhythm and flow of this apart from the end line ' fluff-fluttered' the alliteration grates a little but apart from that it is very good....David
