Out of my Dreams

You came to me tenderly out of my dreams
Though the touch of your hand was not fantasy’s whim
For you wrapped me in warmth like a blanket of beams
Flowing out from the first blush of dawn’s ruby rim

You appeared from a vision held deep in desire
Though your face, not a misty mirage of the mind
For I saw in your eyes a reflection of fire
From the flame of a candle left burning behind

You came into my life from a long ago time
All the years in between were erased by a kiss
As the dawning’s vermillion radiance defined
The sweet truth that an immortal love does exist

You walked out of the dark into stars of the night
It was not an illusion of mystified eyes
For your kiss was the glory of lover’s delight
Revealed in the essence of star laden skies

Pure ecstasy sometimes is gently unfurled
In the dream of a dreamer’s reality world
And a poet can make any fanatsy true
But in this verse, the truth is the realness of you

*sigh* what a perfect poem to start my day with. Now I will go to work and dream that fantasies might become realities. Yes, the perfect way to start my weekend too. **hugs** I love it.  

Love I leave with you whether it is in your life now or yet the essense of your dreams.

When there is the truth and the realness, then all the dreams are that much richer.  Such a beautiful write and filled with so many treasures for lines that I couldn't pick a favorite if I wanted to.  I always enjoy reading yoir creations and this one holds it's own special appeal.  Well done and wonderfully crafted.

We shall speak of this one LOL, and on that pleasant note, I now will go hug my pillow.  Thank you for a "wish to build a dream on".
