Day Dreaming About Night Dreams

A secret smile on my face
that draws a questioning gaze
I still feel his warm embrace
and walk around in a daze

There’s a sparkle in my eyes
as I try to do my job
I don’t think they realize
that I too have a heart throb

I find myself humming tunes
of many romantic works
And feel in the afternoons
the passion that in me lurks

When I think of the content
my eyes fill with wanting gleams
That is how my day was spent
day dreaming about night dreams

Phantom lover you may be
still I feel you close at hand
The future’s clear I foresee
we’ll find love in dreamer’s land

Karen Torbiak 2002©

Love I leave with you whether it is in your life now or yet the essense of your dreams.

Startime...Yes...between dreams and love that's where a dream lover exists. Wonderful poem about believing in your dreams of love and keeping them a burning desire in your heart.  ***Ivy Rose

Remember that song?  "Dreamlover" Oh I loved it!  And this was really full of hope for a dream lover, and when you dream they often come true and I hope yours does! Love-ly!

A Whispers Caress.... thank you, I am glad you liked it. **big hugs**

Nancy...mmmmm good question....I think I see parts of him in different people but he is still just a dream to me...I think I am too afraid for him to become real....I am afraid he would disappear like a dream...I have a hard time believing love can ever be for me.**big hugs**

Love I leave with you whether it is in your life now or yet the essense of your dreams.

Daydreams and nightscreams and moonbeams.  Phantom lovers bring all three of these, wrapped in silken ribbons.

Karen - Really liked the idea behind this write.  Love at night, and then thinking about it all through the day.  Hey, it might sound obsessive, but if you are going to obsessive about anything, that is one thing to be obessive about.lol  Very good.
