I dreamed I took your photograph
So you could be exposed
Wearing nothing but that wrap
And those pantyhose

I dreamed I saw your name in lights
Emblazoned cross the sky
The neon current was a sight
A gas to keep you high

I dreamed I fought a minatour
To take care of your bull
While on the sidelines you had soared
A blimp both round and full

I dreamed I took an X-ray shot
So I could see through you
Until the film got very hot
That is the thing you do

I dreamed I crushed the petalled flower
To give you much more spring
I dreamed I held you in the bower
And promised anything

I dreamed of you when I awoke
In love with you - and then you spoke

Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind.  Unknown

I absolutely loved that. We need more mentions of bowers in poetry!

YOU know I love this one don’t you. Stunning piece of writing from you, utterly outstanding. Wonderful writing absolutely wonderful, you always have the power to paint the flowers within my soul and scoop the joy out of the moment and write it down Excellent may your pen never run dry of hearts ink, and may I always be there see the delight of your write.

You know I love this darling heart it is wondrous
