"Dream of me", she said as she hung up the phone "Dream only of me my love, and me alone" And later that night, when his body hit the bed, Visions of her beauty danced through his head His first dream of her was in Paris, along the Champs Elyesses Dancing with the night, playing hide-and-seek with the day The beauty of her face reflected in his eyes Never before had he felt so happy, never before had he felt so alive His next dream of her was paradise, it looked like Belize There they drank Pina Coladas and lived a life of ease The beauty of her body reflected in the sun It was then that he knew in his heart that she was the only one His last dream of her was the best of the three It was a vision of the one thing that he hoped someday would be The warmth of her body next to him, reflected in candlelight He longed for it to be like this, each and every night He rose from his dream in the middle of the night Stretching out his arms and rubbing the sleep from his sight And as he moved slowly from his bed He stopped, and noticed on his chest, her head ----------------------------------------------------------- That which gives light must endure burning --Victor Frankl |

Well done Sven. Sweet dreams and reality, what a great combination! A life isn't significant except for its impact on other lives. |

Oh Sven I think you were right about that kleenex box. You are turning into a romantic poet my friend. So any reason? Marina |

Sven, That was a wonderous poem full of passion. I love reading your posts The glory of friendship is not the outstretched hand, not the kindly smile, not the joy of companionship; it is the spiritual inspiration that comes to one when he discovers that someone believes in him and is willing to trust him with his friendship." --Ralph Waldo Emerson |

Sven, Wonderful and romantic. Sigh...she is very lucky indeed. I see you hear your muse loud and clear these days. Friends are friend forever if the Lord's the Lord of them and a friend will not say never cause the welcome will not end. --Michael W. Smith |
