Dream Play

Tonight I play in dreams
testing them for any openings to the real.
Pressing, I feel a softness at times
that seems to give way if only...
To chance the real, means to beware
of all that comes with loving:
heartache, disappointments,
misunderstandings.

Tonight I play in dreams
hoping they provide a safe keeping
of my heart, protecting it,
allowing it to expand, awakening it
to new discoveries,
learning to adjust to the darkness,
when the moon hides from the stars
leaving an emptiness on the night seas.

Tonight I play in dreams
viewing the depths of warmth
in eyes that cry out...in silent lips
that rise in kisses to meet desire,
in arms that heat with each touch,
searing their imprints to last the night.

Tonight I play in dreams
hoping to get them right...

again~

So beautiful, Maureen. I've
missed you around here, Lady.  
Hugs to you, my friend,
