       I dreamed 
   of you in moons 
and stars and 
           skies of 
     the blackest lace.
 I saw the truth deep in your eyes,
as I gazed at your lovely face. I saw a bird, a nightingale,
trapped behind wires, confined. Sadness overwhelmed your
   wings, you had left your song behind. I stroked your                      
             feathers and with a smile I bid my 
                         bird goodbye and laughed through tears
                           of joy and sadness as I heard 
                             you sing, 
                   spread your 
                         wings and fly.

marvellous, marvellous visual and fantastic, ethereal transportive quality, loved moments/phrases 'skies of the blackest lace', 'trapped behind wires' and 'sadness overwhelmed your wings'. v imaginative, swells to an uplifting ending
