Was I? I asked... as cotton slipped the calf and cool tile touched the toe in wrinkle. The veil of sleep lifting slowly from my mind as memories brushed my lids. Honey touching my lips as a left behind taste of passion followed my tongue. Could it? A dream, nothing more as silk drawn streams of day pierced my sight in squint and a stifled yawn strained the clenched muscles of a jaw...Still, the taste that lingered puzzled and a fragrance lingered longingly upon the pillow, cooling from the lifting of sensuality. I am... Sitting softly upon the corner of nature’s lustful field, as a momentary glimpse into what might have been touched my shoulder. Turning, reaching....finding nothing. Were you? Were you there, as I gave to you that which my desires felt? Or... Were you simply a dream? Yet again as stars filled the darkened skies and a moon slowly arched into dawn’s rays... Please, please return, I have not yet told you goodnight and... Pleasant Dreams.... |

Those in between dreams are hard to believe, but they are certainly warm and worth the sweet gleaming. Good Sunday morning Barry~ |

Were you simply a dream? Yet again as stars filled the darkened skies and a moon slowly arched into dawn’s rays... Please, please return, I have not yet told you goodnight and... Pleasant Dreams.... Awww, there is such longing in this, Barry. It is so beautiful, though.  Hugs  Ethel |
