Picture by Josephine Wall

* * *

I dive so very recklessly
Into this sensual sea
As waves of deep desire
Start to wash right over me

In the land of dreams and wishes
Love flows like a tranquil stream
I can be anywhere I want
When I close my eyes and dream

We sample love's sweet nectar
From a chalice of desire
As I let your kisses quench me
The flames of love grow higher

This love we share is timeless
You found the key to my heart's door
Your love is like a hidden treasure
I have just begun to explore

I never knew such love existed
But you came and showed me how
I stopped living in the past
And started living here and now

* * *

"If I never met him,
I would have dreamed him into being"

I am in motion
I am blue
Love is an ocean
I'm anchored in you

What a beautiful picture! Simply gorgeous! Reminds me of the cards I collect.

"In the land of dreams and wishes
Love flows like a tranquil stream
I can be anywhere I want
When I close my eyes and dream"

This is my favourite stanza, especially the last two lines. The second line seems to have a little meter glitch, but it's barely noticeable.

Light keep you always,
Amara

Spoken thoughts of what we each wish to
hold in our hands...  Nicely put.  Such
is deep love,  when shared passionately.

Very beautiful Sue...
Reads like a Valentine.
Lovely indeed.

This is poetry at its best. The picture was beautiful and inspiring but the words, oh my the words were unforgettable.
