 Private Emotion Click to hear music Dreams: Risk of the Familiar Understand the woman in me, Like I love the man in you. I need your strong arms around me, Till my dreams and the night are through. I need you close beside me, All things now become new. Confusion there in shadows. Attempts to cloud my view, And once again I risk familiar thoughts, To find what's true. A heartache caught me, Looking up and seeing lights. The tears could not keep them, Beyond my sight. I reached out a hand to touch, The jewel within my grasp, With a silent prayer of hope, Still reeling from the last.... This flight, too, will pass. At night I dream of oceans green And violet ribbonned sky And places I have only lived In another time gone by.... And I dream of you.... In most familiar ways. The kindness in your eyes, The tenderness in your hands, The way your smile lights up a room, And the truth and calmness, Inside your voice. When you say, "I understand" Understand the woman in me, Like I love the man in you. I need your strong arms around me, Till my dreams and the night are through.

Hi MagicMystery. Very interesting poem. I love the theme. The way you pulled the verses together is neat too. Bravo and well done. Thank-you for taking the time to read my poetry too. I just had to look at yours after seeing you were from Toronto. Sometimes I get so homesick...it is nice to meet someone from back there. It's been 5 years since I've got to traipse around Toronto. I came back for a visit this past July...but the big SARS scare stopped me from entering the city itself. Anyway I am sure that does not interest you. I just wanted to share the smile you have given me this morning. Thanks - Kevin. Remember, if you're not part of the future, you're history! |

Kevin, Thank you for your heartfelt reply. And I do understand about missing a place.... I am originally from Windsor, Ontario, just across the River from Detriot Mich. but I haven't been there for a year (since I packed up my family and moved them here.... I left friends and family behind.. anyway.... I wouldn't have let the SARS thing scare me.... it was pretty much under control by July. I hope you get the chance to visit again soon. I know what it's like to miss a place. Linda ~~~thank you~~~ I am so glad you liked it!!! it took me the better part of the night to animate both the background and the title pic.... what I didn't expect is that it was gonna move to the beat of the music!!! I am kinda proud of that..... thanks for checking it out and reporting that it is function the way it looks to me. Sherry |
