In Meadow Fair

Upon my back in meadow fair
where sun blown breezes lift my hair
I dream, my lover, still unknown,
to me, in clouds, of white be shown

Adrift on winds is flower’s scent
perfumes my thoughts as I invent
A spell is cast on summer noon
filling the air with magic tune

Release of needs from deep within
as webs of fantasy I spin
Weaving them on a golden loom
with threads of passion I consume

Such rainbow hues of love I wove
within the silent forest grove
While nature all around me played
until the setting sun I stayed

So many years have come and gone
and yet I dream until the dawn
Still of a lover never seen
just like when I was once a teen

Karen Torbiak 2002©



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

Enjoyed this word weaving,
You give warm thoughts on a winter’s day,
Bringing summertime and youth back into play.
Nice that you never stopped believing.

Karen, again your words are beautiful.  Hugs to you.  *s*

On the wings of words our spirits fly....and our souls are free.

Karen, this is soooo beautiful. I pray that God will take His golden needle and silver thread and weave for you the perfect spirit of man, to send to you, soon. God wants you to have a perfect gift. Look up to the stars, for your man is there awaiting your cry. And soon he will come to you in a surprise heated bolt of lightning. Have faith, dear.

Karen - you write your thoughts, sad at times, but a true romantic you are...

I feel the serenity and the loneliness of
this poem...You pen these feelings with such
ease and perfection.

This poem is as beautiful as a flower

Adrift on winds is flower’s scent
perfumes my thoughts as I invent
A spell is cast on summer noon
filling the air with magic tune

and very beautiful.

I Just love the way you write.  It is so vivid... I am there, so beautiful and yet so sad.... one wishes that sleep would last an eternity...  when the dream world surpasses the real.... I hope you find your true love soon... Well written.

Cherish the good memories past and look forward to the adventure called Tomorrow.
But above all... be kind to yourself today.

This takes me back to the days of my youth when the beach was my backyard, bike riding along the strand! Most of all I remember the wind blowing through my hair.

I really liked this Startime, you captured
the innocence of those long forgotten days.
