At the weekend she’ll go back again to walk barefoot on ferns And then through shadowed green mosaics where sunlight never burns She’ll wander wisp tossed quiet lanes of timeless peace rimmed hours Where emerald rain drops sprinkle from sky cameo blue showers, And her memories touch her colourless, invisible her dreams A potpourri of what could be, at least that’s how it seems, Bare branches from a shaded stream, her mystic sundial time Will write again on patchwork waters with the elegance of rhyme. And then she’ll rest against an oak tree in a timeless scented glade To dream of dreams that dream of her before her visions fade, Within her silver quietness she’ll feel the whispered songs That speak to her in once again, of where her soul belongs, And in her dreaming wakefulness, her echoes all return Those images of wonderment that made her passion burn, Until at last her eyes said prayers that wandered from her face To drape the hours of shade and showers in snow white Whitby lace. When every echo comes back home, as she strolls by the stream She’ll whisper walk through spirit lands dressed only in a dream Trimmed in black satin moments and in silken serenades She’ll drift in her serenity until the vision fades, In the new morn she will tip toe back to where her dream belongs That wondrous land that holds her hand and sings to her its songs, For all she was and all she is became a part of me And arm in arm we’ll wander over our celestial sea… |
