The deepest darkness of the night.... <br />is shimmering, sparkling, gay, alight! <br />with all the faries shining bright.... <br />as the ivy grows.... <br /> <br />Now the sprites ate being born, <br />their mothers keep them safe and warm <br />and they take shelter from the storm <br />as the Ivy grows.... <br /> <br />Mermaids are a sight, behold! <br />their scales shine of the purest gold, <br />their voices bewitch, ..... or so i'm told, <br />as the Ivy grows... <br /> <br />Human eyes can never see.... <br />how beautiful the world can be... <br />we never hear the mermaids sing... <br />or feel the joy the faries bring... <br /> <br />No one knows, as the ivy grows, <br />the ivy sees it all. <br /> <br /> 1/23/07 Julie Rogers<br /><br />Julie Rogers<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/as-the-ivy-grows/
