Another dawn

\nIn a garden lit by moonbeams there are dreams that you can taste
\nWhen you wander with your lover past the dawn
\nWhere the plants have spread their branches and their blooms are nicely placed
\nYou are safe from prying killjoys and their scorn
\nWhere the stars have kissed the flowers with a breath of magic air
\nAnd the leaves are shone with dew and fairy hands
\nYou may find your lover melts into a dream you want to share
\nOf a life that just the sunrise understands
\n Author notes
\nGo to sleep you idiot!
\nI wrote it when I couldn’t get to sleep, but reading it this morning is in an
\ninteresting meter. A “ballad measure” with alternating long and short lines in
\nthis case tetrameter and termeter but the feet are of variable length mainly
\nthree or four syllables, I like it though<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
