Dreams Of Spring
By Paul Wilson


Dragonfly’s dance upon waters rush
to mountains edge and cascade of fall
Dove’s sing sadly from weeping willow limbs
as lazy days of Summer’s past I recall

Today is one of those special days
we are given every now and then
A time to remember what we choose
or maybe a moment of pretend

Slumber’s gentle touch overcomes me
and I begin to dream of you dear
Chariots of white floating in sky
carry me back to when you were here

Time spent together in shade of trees
wrapped in each others arms all day long
Watching dragonfly’s dance on waters edge
and listening to dove’s sing their love song

Chill of night’s gentle touch just begun
awakens me from never land of dreams
Stars luminescent glow touches stream
where dragonfly’s dance with moon beams

Dove’s sing their song of love to mate at dusk
from limbs of willow blowing in breeze
Teardrops fall into darkness of night
from eyes into stream and no one sees




~~To share my poems with you is to share my heart with you~~

Oh, it is memories such as this that keep us going through the long winter months. Lovely Paul. Happy New Year to you!
hugs, Chris
