Day Too Soon Drops my Blanket Don’t wake me I am dreaming. I hear a whisper into my tousle, the sound of morning stirs bejeweled in mist against the window. It holds me accountable for giving time to glorious midnight. Hold me still dream, I am like a beginning softly turning to light, a melt of pale on pale. Kiss me I am drifting down river beguile with your lips on my closed eyes. Softly close the shutters, day too soon drops my blanket. and so I just know that love never dies and that souls hold all the candles and they are the kind you can’t blow out [This message has been edited by Martie (edited 10-22-2001).] |

It holds me accountable for loosing time to glorious midnight. Hold me still dream, I am like a beginning softly turning to light, a melt of pale on pale. Kiss me I am drifting down river beguile with your lips on my closed eyes. =============================== *sigh* just like the dream...I didnt want this to end either...... this reads like a whisper at midnight... beautiful Martie!! This distance has shown how the road remains alone |

Beautifully written!! Everyone has fought off the morning light to remain in a dream that soon may be forgotten, you captured the moment and translated it perfectly. Well done!! |

To be suspended in a dream....oh don't I wish sometimes! Wonderful write Martie. On the wings of words our spirits fly....and our souls are free. |

I don't think a dream of yours could be forgotten, as it would be tomorrow's poetry. This was so lovely Martie, thank you. ~*~ Carpe' Diem ~*~ |
