~ The little Box 


 

Where did I find you my little box?

Let me remember, within the travel of my mind,

You took me away with you that night

In the decades of time alone and left behind

 

Your doors opened into a beautiful garden

Angels, and Elves danced with harps in their hands

Their humming peaceful sounds were a path to follow

The stones, as a road to lead and be one with the lands

 

The soft little music was leading me,

And the birds of love flew upon there

The world was much kinder, and less selfish

A voyage of peace, musing elegant, and rare

 

I left my high heels, and started to run barefoot

The fresh moss tickled my feet

The wind blew softly and fluent

A castle in my sight, I knew I had "you" to meet

 

Kept on running harder and harder…

The leading music became so lovely the closer I was,

You were singing to me, out of the box

As I was following the sound of your silent vox

 

I found you there, so tiny and alone

The little box, had made you live inside it’s heart,

You couldn’t talk, but sing, hum, and jump

Of happiness you were nevermore apart

 

Of the souls proprietor which found your second life

And brought it back to her world to stay

In the drawer of her bedside table,

For  you to sing her goodnight into each new day

This is timeless..."Your doors opened into a beautiful garden
Angels, and Elves danced with harps in their hands
Their humming peaceful sounds were a path to follow
The stones, as a road to lead and be one with the lands"~ Eli, your talent never ceases to amaze me. I am at awe at the beauty of this whimsical masterpiece. A Mesmerizing write!

Oh Sis, I was thinking of you just right now, and then i saw you had posted this... And sorry, that I haven't been around more... In the past, I have told friends that I care for, that I will keep them in my treasure box, some safe place in my heart where precious moments can be preserved forever... This beautiful poem of yours make me think of that... So I imagine, if I were to tuck into that box, a fervent love... how it would feel like everything beautiful you have said here, like dancing barefoot across the gardens of a palace, to the most lovely of music, to open that box again... and find that heart is still there, perfect and wildly alive ,along with all of that love... So beautiful, dear Elisa...

You always create such beautiful imagery with your poems. This is no exception and is just flawless. You tell such amazing stories. Loved it. You gave life to an object that would usually be stationary. Great work.

for me this little box contains the treasure of the heart, which no one could really see and find but you, the person who has it! I feel atmosphere of melancholy and joy in the same time, the poem exists in its magical world, out of our time. That`s the real human time of the box. amazing!

What an enchanting tale of precious memories locked in this gorgeous trinket of loveliness filled with memories of fond times gone by.

Keep hold of your cool little box, once was lost in past and found again now in your present!

Reads like a page from Lewis Carroll's Alice in Wonderland....

Written by a true poetess.....

Such a wonderful and fantastic poem!! I loved it! Perhaps add a comma after you in the first line? Im not sure about you but to me it would make the line a little more shaped.

I love it when a poem is full of whimsy! I wanted to get naked and dance in the rain while blaring this wonderful tune! Sorry...but next time don't be so inspiring. It almost made me feel childlike...when I used to play dress up, and twirling and dancing....tossing my hair around....lol, I was a prissy girl...waiting to get wings so that I might fly away and find my Prince Charming. Bowing at your feet I am...so many pale in comparison when it comes to your beauty and talents....gorgeous! x
