watched you walking barefoot
along the lakefront
looking upward
smiling at the moon’s grace
later . . .
you put your eyes on me
long brown hair tousled into your face
oh, I think
poetry
no matter how sensuous I can make
the syntax
it still will not serve
to explain the throbbing of my heart
as later . . .
after the loving
when you lay in my arms
and murmured I love you
over and over again
as you slept

I think you tell it quite well, dear Jerry. I would say dreams are a most fabulous reality, when it comes to romanticism and love ... they lift us up more than any dull pills.

Very lovely.
