I saw you there upon the sands.
You, in your flowing gown of silk.
The moon reflecting off of a tear.
The breeze caressing softest hair.

I reached out to touch your hand.
Only the emptiness of air was found.
I tried to wipe away the lonely tear.
I could not...

I whispered “I Love You” in your ear.
You could not hear the words.
I hugged you, held you close, not felt.
Dreams...only dreams...

The distant sound of a horn.
The only sound my ears could hear.
The lights of a lighthouse warning.
The stillness of the silence overwhelming.

My dreams take me away from you.
Within them, I am alone, searching.
Reality, in my eyes soulfully stares.
The vision, once clear, now a mist.

I ask each night..each lonely night..
Let this man have a lady within dreams.
I cry each morn, each lonely morn.
As emptiness fills my mind.

Come to me my darling, I await.
A dream of joy awaits us each now.
Sleep and live this moment with me.
For my passions mount for you.

Thanx Karen...when I get to where she gets
about 60 percent of this intensity...well
I guess she will be really flying in the
clouds then...huh?

Leave those oysters alone...I almost bought
some tonite...but so expensive..

Ah, how romantic is this? Awaiting her in your dreams. Sigh...what more can I say?

If she who dies with the most toys wins, then can I have some toy boys please?

Mr. "M":

You certainly have outdone yourself with this one.  Very seductive, but remember that if you cannot see her, she is always in your heart.  Lovely indeed.

well done-- bet she loves this one

There is society where none intrudes, by the deep sea, and music in its roar.
