Tonight, Cascading

As warmth overflows
and the storm rages on,
here in my empty bed,
pillowed tightly
are my thoughts of you.
In a world of real
when sight and sound and touch
are a passions delight,
I bathe in the darkness
of loving you.
Unfolding are my dreams
as they open to a world
surrounded in beauty,
like that found on a summers day.
And I am transformed,
heartbound on a journey,
replaying those memories
of then.

Cascading, they touch me,
as your lips gently pressed their want
and drew my own in hold.
Rushing in behind
are the whispered memories,
the teasing, soft laughing and smiles
of childlike innocence,
enjoying the view before each.
Everything harvested, protected
from the harshness of Winter
shall emerge born of love
and come the dawning of Spring
we shall share again
in the soft sighs
of the awakening.

Love the comparison here Wynter......the loneliness is covered by a blanket of dreams from the past...happy loving times that are still special in memory (as you mention they become so real).....dreaming about them and using the Spring as an illustration is wonderful smooth flowing writing.....and...you sure can write soft flowing smooth poetry with the very best of them.....

The poet is like a cocoon; in him the caterpillar of the past finds rest, and from him the butterfly of the future emerges.

as soon as I finish typing this reply -
you know what I will do:
head for the bed -
grab that cozy comforter-
wrap my arms around the pillow -
and dream a most extravagant fantasy

This is wonderful Wynter
