This Reverie


What lament, what memory need I find
Within this pensive pause of mind
What query am I to dismiss in this moment now
This heart to live love's vow
Echoes of heart I hear from deep within
And gone the despair, the daunting din
Songbirds call and knowing is my heart
From this reverie I shall not depart
Lilting moments in sweet sounding plea
Make my beloved ever known to me.

RoseMarie-
and so you have emerged, once again in to the hope of light restored - I was with you in the darkness - I hope you felt me there. I was quiet so you could understand the truth within - waiting to be known - you are amazing and I join you in the light - never having left your side in the dark search.
Love Gail
peace.....
