At the top of the spiral staircase And through to the bedroom is where I'll be Just follow the trail of red rose petals And you are bound to find me The trail of petals will lead you Through to the bathroom door Where you will find a pile of clothing Crumpled and left on the floor At this point your gaze will be lead To the bathtub with candles all around It is underneath all of these bubbles Where my body amongst the foam can be found A cold glass of wine I'll be drinking As I look at you from over my glass A dozen red roses are seen in the mirror As they stand tall in the crystal vase You lean over the bath and you kiss me So close to heaven you always make me feel Then my eyes open wide and I'm here in my bed It's then I realise it's a dream - not for real Suetang |

I have had this dream also, what a romantic. Life has a way of waking you up sometimes. |

Truely enjoyable, inspirationally so, hope you don't mind a little sonnet response. Spiral up, the stairs creaking, To bed sheets just past sleeping, Stems and petals on the floor, Strewn to where they weren’t before, Fragrance now ever so slight, Heavenly mixture of night, Flowers and candles perfume, Morning sun lights the room. Closing eyes she pictures all, Dancing shadows on the wall, Arriving late and dreaming done, Dreams left with the rising sun. Spiral down the creaking stairs, Sensations she’d hope to share Gloom |

Sounded pretty real to me. Well done. P.S. If you write like this too often, there are a lotta folks here ready to follow the flower petals  Live for love. Without love, you don't live. |
