A Wandering Mind In the nightly silence a wandering mind paces, trying to understand how the wind blows when yesterday's memory becomes closer than that. For the third time need be more than a caress since you have been away too long and I have been left swinging on dreams. I shall be standing in moonbeams erasing the gray, awaiting that one kiss on a moonlit night that shall hold the forever in this wandering mind. M "Love is not blind - It sees more and not less, but because it sees more, it is willing to see less." |

Hi Maureen...there is so much longing in this dream swing. Lovely and sad to hear this song so loud and clear. |

My mind has been known to wander thusly, as well... "I shall be standing in moonbeams erasing the gray," ~ Great attitude! ~ Great idea!!! I hope there's a full moon for us tonight! ~ Well, you know what I mean! lol May you not have to wait long for that "one kiss", Ms. Bliss, "on a moonlit night that shall hold the forever in this wandering mind."  Lovely write.   Linda |

fine imagery of Romanticism ... I am particularly fond of the ending: "I shall be standing in moonbeams erasing the gray, awaiting that one kiss on a moonlit night that shall hold the forever in this wandering mind." applause for this 'penning' !! |

It's easy enough to allow the mind to wander during such a summer...enjoyed this, Maureen! Also, thanks for checking in and responding to my poem. I'm grateful for friends like you. School's almost set to reopen in our neck of the woods...far too early, middle of August. Paahh!  |

Martie, a poet friend inspired me with a few phrases to use~~~letting my mind wander. Thanks and so good to see you again. Linda, the moon was full and golden, shining through my window the past few nights. I have several "forevers" that will remain with me, always. Bill, thank you for being you Bruce, I love the end thought, too. Hope your summer is treating you well. Sue, always happy to see you here. Thank you, my friend. Lori, always missing you but pleased to see you here. M shellie, thank you for stopping by, you are a wonderful addition here. Alison, thank you for all you do.  Karilea, hoping your spirits are being lifted and yes school will be starting here in 2 weeks. The economy has dampened the summer even if there is no rain in sight. Leaves time to reflect on one's life. M |
