Thanks, Sheila. Heavenly pens that write what we want know . . .

That makes me smile, Deb. Thank you for letting me know.

Hi, Nadja--Yes, it is true; I live in a place where the atmospherics allow these romantic shafts of light to come and add their presence to the party.

Green spears of light, eh, Carol. I'll have to work on that one. ;-) Thank you for the compliment.

The beams of the moon, the halos of the candles, the glow of embers in the hearts of the lovers: I love what the moon write upon a scene. And now you have written and lent this light to us.

I agree, this is very romantic
but, unlike Carol, I'm glad it wasn't about Britney

I agree, David. The sun, moon, and earth conspire to give us many romantic moments. Thank you for a wonderfully eloquent compliment--you grand poet, you!

Thank you, Anne. I'm glad it struck a cord.

Hmm, Steve--Spears of asparagus and Britney. What in the world could a poet do with that combination? ;-)

Hi, Lyrical--I'm glad the poem could do that for you. Thank you for the compliment. Sorry I missed your comment 'til now. I'll get over to your website and take a look.
