Love - it seems to me a dream When twilight rests upon my brow And fingers break the fragile skein That separate the here from now Atop a bed of silk so fair ‘Neath diamond starlight winks a’bright Oh! Glorious eyes bold – I ensnared Render wakefulness a futile plight Luminous shines my pure white skin Halo’d within a moonlit glow Ethereal dreams don adoring grin Cradle my body with lover’s show Sweet be mine upon this night Where Chronos’ rule traps us not Within your arms, the dawn we’ll fight Nay, Lonliness! We deny our lot Enrapture my senses dream lover mine If only for our short short while Let me taste pure love divine Upon the lips of your tender smile Alas - as dawn’s light creeps slowly in I am left with naught but a gentle tear In remembrance of I – your arms within Your strength abolishing my every fear Love – it seems to me a dream And I but a lonely twilight gleam May I never be too busy to help another's load, Then I'll be drinking from the saucer 'cause my cup has overflowed. --Author Unknown |

This is almost musical to me...you sing a sadly beautiful song here...I adored it....every line is lyrical Words bloom like flowers that seem astonished at being born. L. Pirandello 16th Century Dramatist |

Oh Satiated one - this poem was wonderful! I love the description of love in dreams. This poem flowed so well, and says so much of what every person must feel at some point in their life. I also love your picture. Surely, it must be one of your favorites. What a sweet sweet scene. |
