Tender moments recalled
when I could see
the love in your eyes
shining down on me

moon reflections

of treasured daze when
we owned our own
little corner
in the universe

journeying
through galaxies
riding on tails
of stardust
leaving trails
of what was us
lingering behind
in space and time

until we stopped to
take rest in
the Milky Way's
delight
shimmering, shining
through darkest of nights

where time stood still
and our hearts played
like innocent children
full of laughter,
so carefree...

spellbound
somewhere in time

once upon a dream.


{I originally intended this to be a choka,
but words kept coming to me and it ended up longer than I thought it would.  If anyone wants to add, please feel free though.   }


Give me your heart
Make it real
Or else forget about it...Santana

"spellbound

~Somewhere in my heart I'm always
dancing with you in the summer rain~

once upon a dream

where children laugh
amid bluebird's song
and tender nights
are blessedly long
where buzzing bees
drone lazily
'neath apple trees
and we would hazily
dream still, dream well...
within the treasured daze...

To this dream we may return,
And turn the daze to clear-
Clicking together heals
Children again holding hands,
Skipping over yellow bricks
Gentle spirit-me
And that Sunshine girl
From Kansas...(seems
like Karilea might be
The grown-up Dorothy?)

Grab Toto-
Lets go
Find Oz...
For he is the one
Who really knows,
The difference between
What's real
And what's a dream.

It's been a while since I've been on the blue pages, but your poetry is still as lovely and sweet as I remember.

~ Upon reading this poem, I looked to the night sky and thought... I like it when words cause me into action. Enjoyed.

How can any poem of yours have only eleven replies? Tis a puzzlement!

...and, I do know what you mean about the Choka thing.....check the first poem I ever posted in PiP:

Japan

Must it be ever
Flowers, drops within dewdrops,
White petals falling?
What then of concrete causeways,
Rays of steel that rise
Unstinting to the new sky?
Does the steel not sing?
Will hard bright wings not bear us
To the country of the gods?


Technically still in form, but......
