      Not so cut and clean

She stood there naked in the light.
Within the foolish of the night.
In alabaster shards of moon.
If not a dream I would have swoon.

Seurated dots in points surround
And cherry blossoms lay the ground.
Renoir colors flaring dare,
Almost more then I could bare.

Illusions sharper then a dream,
Beat my heart to near extreme.
And tears flowed down in crystal wet,
Including those that rolled in sweat.

Reaching out in touching sigh,
Brought about a rueful cry.
For in that touch, the bubble broke
And awesomes scene, went up in smoke.

An ecstasy and agony dream
But it did not end so cut and clean.

Dear Sy
A dream enrapturing this much
Is quite decieving you will find
A vision that's not meant to touch
Will burst your bubble every time

Well written, this intriguing
dream of yours
Love ya

This reminds me of scenes from the movie: "What Dreams May Come."

Fantastic imagery.

Seymour~

Dream your bubbles
while you may
all too quickly
it may just be
that someone
chasing your bubbles
just may capture thee.

Fascinating read, as per the usual.
You sure can capture a moment.
Love you~

I have only word for this one seymour,

CAPTIVATING !!!

Regards, sudhir

 Life is like a painting,
That in an art gallery is left hanging,
Though many come just to look at it,
A very few actually come to enjoy it.

Great analogy and metaphor usage; you paint a lavish scene with your words. But if it did not end so cut and clean, how then did it end? Sudhir said the right word: captivating!

^_^ LadySofia


 That time of year thou mayst in me behold, When yellow leaves, or none, or few, do hang, Upon those boughs which shake against the cold, Bare ruined choirs where late the sweet birds sang. In me thou see'st the twilight of such day, As after sunset fadeth in the west, Which by-and-by black night doth take away, Death's second self that seals up all in rest. In me thou see'st the glowing of such fire, That on the ashes of his youth doth lie, As the deathbed whereon it must expire, Consumed with that which it was nourished by. This thou perciev'st, which makes thy love more strong, To love that well which thou must leave ere long.
William Shakespeare
