Once Upon

Once upon a dreamers night
A maiden’s spirit held my sight
Dressed in chiffon rose in hew
I swore it had the look of you

I called your name in whispered awe
Reaching out in hearts implore
But could not touch my visions view
And gasped to see my hand pass through

And as you wove this daunting wile
While humming in a haunting style
Pulling threads of pantomime
Sewing webs of future time

When suddenly and all too soon
Under cascades of the moon
Slipping into non exist
Like fading notes, an organist

And in that moment of extreme
I awoke this lovely dream

Ah Sy...
may all of your dreams
become flesh, and bone...
and silky touch...

Writers try to capture the exhilaration of Nature & inspiration of Love.
The attempts may be futile, the endeavors are all things that is poetry.

perhaps you should have offered a glass of wine and she might have stayed a bit longer.

Enjoyed as always.

Ah yes...I see it clearly...
a phantom lover held you tight
weaving magic all through the night
....A vision to inspire dreams....*big hugs*
