The Dream Oppressive slumber, wicked cold and stark, Domain of heartless imps of evil schemes. Please rescue me from nightmares of the dark, And banish every ghost of restless dreams. Transport me to that place where lovers dwell, Enveloped in a shroud of perfect peace, Where sorrows of a saddened sleep dispel, And aches of love that’s lost must surely cease. Your words must push unfounded fears aside, As feelings strive to conquer intellect. To comfort and to stem the rushing tide, Of poignant pains, destructive and direct. Declare your love unwavering and true, And ease this racing heart that pines for you. |

David, I must chime in here with Denise. I can easily fancy us sharing a BIG book of your lovely verses...and hanging on every poetic breath and turn. This is just superb. ~ Claire Could a greater miracle take place than for us to look through each other's eyes for an instant?......Henry David Thoreau |
