    You have taken me on an enchanting journey with your words, I enjoyed it immensely.

    "The Lord and the Lady, rode into the night~
    Her arms entwined around him tight.
    The horse they rode was dark, glistening black.
    He majestically carried them both on his back.
    They rode with the wind and the shadows of dark.
    For the night holds secrets deep in their hearts."

    My favorite stanza, so dark and mystical. I love your rhyming here and throughout this poem.

    "His hair like midnight, hers like the sun."

    hers should be her's.

    "Magic and music echoed through the night air"

    I would change "night" to "evening" or something to that extent. Just because you repeat "night" a lot in this poem, and I think you could make it more interesting by using synonyms. Just an opinion.

    "All dancing in the Garden where the Wizards dwelled.
    Made of Faerie Dust, soft green moss and bright bluebells."

    "Faerie" should be "Fairy". But such vivid imagery is written here, beautiful descriptions.

    But what I really liked about this piece, was the imagination put into it. And throughout this poem, you told a wonderful story that was such fantasy. Keep writing, always and forever....

    Thank you for your comments and input. I appreciate it. I used the 'old english" way of spelling faery, rather than the standard fairy. I thought it lent itself more into 'old tradition', as opposed to the modern way of spelling it.
