And I dream in layers
of yesterday's shadows
and tomorrow’s hopes
held by a single thread
of today;

I wait for the stands to fray

unraveling the torturous grip
of sienna nights in searing caress
under silver moon sky
where eyes still searched soul

reflecting on glass
captured images
stretched out panther like
in grace of slumbering embrace

before the mourning came to call

shattering the layers
of dream.


after a fall I get back up,
move on 'cause the past is the past and theres no tomorrow if remaining in still waters while the river flows on ~dsmith

interesting 'write'!

I am particularly fond of:

“I dream in layers
of yesterday's shadows…”

AND:

“sienna nights…
under silver moon sky…”;

Applause!!

Lady Kate, indeed it is.     Thank you, each.
