The Maiden and the Nightingale <br />A mesmerizing picture that burns in my memory <br />Leaving me to pick up the pieces, strewn about by <br />a gathering breeze of Poetic illusions <br />The Maiden, sitting alone, waiting perchance for <br />the sweet sounds of the Nightingale, that fall <br />from the sky on a quiet eve <br />As the Nightingale appears before her, the Maiden <br />morphs into his mate <br />Together, in flight, they wing on his song to the <br />Ethereal realm of Peace and Tranquility <br />Nesting forever, in a Song for Two<br /><br />John Leroy Maxwell<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/song-for-two/
