Softly She Sings Softly she sings, of a faraway land, Where the meadows all glisten with dew . . . With ginger and jasmine scenting the air, Where the elusive Phoenix once flew With castles aplenty, inhabited by Souls all kindred in heart . . . Where fulfillment is the rule of the land, And disharmony has no part Softly she sings, of a place in her heart, Where the essense of all that land dwells . . . Where peace is the stream, that waters the fields, And love flows from eternal wells.
Wanda Kay's questions:
Is this poem repulsively mushy/dreamy?
Is the punctuation OK? Would it be better without any?
