The Dream That Lasted

As birds sing out towards the end of day
my eyes lift gazing on the greying sky
I dream of times when we were cast away
where ocean waves played gentle lullaby

The velvet of the night would hold us close
and cool the heat from tender breeze caress
Night came to life as we would lightly doze
as diamonds lit the heavens to impress

A smiling moon looked down upon just two
weaving magic that came from deep within
A fantasy for them has now come true
for on the isle of love they now begin

The dream that lasted many years of sleep
awakens at each dawning of the sun
Strong arms reach out and to his chest they sweep
a maid whose love and life has just begun

I have had many dreams like this. You never want to wake up. I love it.

Cold hands means a warm heart
