Nocturne

My languid dreams drift through the night
Buoyed by nocturnal sprite
Hanging oe’r glistening bow
Ne’er to me it’s message now
Farther, nearer on the breeze
Sullen whispers in the trees
And in my head, sleep doth sow
Upon this night, my thoughts doth flow
Gently, gently comes the dream
Sweet utterance doth barely seem
To quench a daily thirst that lusts
For what on morn the sunrise shuts
Away, away to come again
Upon the rising of my friend
Whose eyes within can ne’r be seen
These, the twinklings of my dream

Sometimes I wonder if maybe you aren't Shakespeare re-incarnated... You are one of very VERY few people who can pull off language like that and make it sound absolutely excellent. :) Good job!

Nice work :) I like how soft and soothing it sounds.

It's... enchanting. And now you've got your wish, my poor heart is aching. "These, the twinklings of my dream" is my favorite. So very appropriate in describing the snippets of dream left upon waking, that seem to fade the way dew evaporates with the sun. -sigh- Dreams are those things intangible which allow is to remain original in a typical world.

I wish I could be inside your head when you dream; you'll probably disagree with me and say you wouldn't want me to be there, seeing the things you dream about etc., but I've come to know the beauty in you and want to wallow in it.
Actually, it's enough to just be around you (in any sense) to see all that you create. Word-weaver. :)
