whisper to me where ere you are though I know you not I will hear your voice matters not where I am your words will be delightful will cause a smile ere though I sleep the sleep of yearning for mystery woman of my dreams lovers are lovers only if they love truthfully dreaming of distant strangers who dream same dreams as do you whisper words of eternal love I will accept them into my heart where they shall live forever bolstering my own commitment to our eventual physical entanglement overflowing with sweet honey for you to taste forever shall our love be real I call upon the great gods as witness I taste your sweetness in slumber which you bequeath to me so do you accept from me that which I provide so willingly it's like a soft brushing across my mouth the taste of love is exquisite as the nights multiply I take pleasure from your beautiful unknown face I feel your eyes upon mine across the void we chance to meet in wondrous, pleasing dreams I awake knowing we will someday someway surely make our dreams come true In the 60's, people took acid to make the world weird. Now the world is weird and people take Prozac to make it normal. |

Haha! Thank you, Kat for reading and commenting on my poem. <><><> Owl, maybe she is listening, or maybe I'm just whistling in the dark. <><> You are right about how love combined with teamwork can move mountains, Spiros. Thanks for being here. In the 60's, people took acid to make the world weird. Now the world is weird and people take Prozac to make it normal. |

Hi Lori. Oh, I was never quite "away," just cooling my heels a bit. Thank you for your support, it is greatly appreciated. ~ Life is sexually transmitted ~ |

This is so beautiful, JerryPat I couldn't help but be moved by it. Excellent writing! There must be a poem in here somewhere. |

Your "whisper" promised well and it has maintained the promise. Without dreams the world would be a cold place. Enjoyed your romantic write very much. Love, Margherita |

Thank you very much, Margherita. I don't write love poems as often as I should I guess. ~ Life is sexually transmitted ~ |

I like the warm... and I like that dreams are shared... and I also like that I've had similar dreams, but please do change the scenario just a little... |

Sorry, Sunshine, I'm not sure I understand how I would change the scenario. It rambles along with dips and curves, but eventually ends with hope in the heart. ~ Life is sexually transmitted ~ |
