to the music of The Sable by Random Goldfish
(open in new window)
Locked in solitude, I prayed,
memories like a songbook played;
shadows danced, mistily stained the glass
where sweet images framed this lass...
Black haired, I once swayed ...his love
distant as the stars above;
mysteries twisted our hands apart,
feelings lost but in this flute and harp...
Treasured gifts I had ...received,
for eternity ...believed;
certainties sought but were never found,
traveling over uncertain ground...
Passing where my heart had been,
can he see my heart within?
Just as I married a life with him,
suns then set, life ahead grows dim...
Willowed-ribboned branches sway
touched his eyes with mirth and play
in the deep forest greens, where I won
my first glance from his heart and song...
Summers turned to autumn gold,
still charmed, still his hands ...I held;
life so rich, delights in earthly sounds,
sorrow in gladness ...was ever drowned.
Autumns turn to winters, cold,
feelings unforeseen ...unfold;
seasons when love was held high to tests,
hearts were torn in puzzled breasts...
Winters cede their cold ...to spring,
tiny seeded flowers bring
meadows wild, beautiful, uncontrolled;
in this wilderness, my love of old.

Adding your comment:
hehe I do have a music studio program for the computer that I haven't opened yet- where I could add your reverb back in, but then I could just have you do it! (providing it's not during the school year!)
