As dusk caresses day
Darkness then, soon descends
Rapes remaining light away

Mentally at midnight
Wide-awake and wishing well
These maladies of memory
Will rapidly dispel

While body aches for slumber
My mind longs to review
Candlelight and shadows
Visions there of you

An arch seen through a doorway
A table resting leg
Hands that move like clockwork
As I begin to beg

Touch me while I’m dreaming
Sleep please visit soon
Take me now to her somehow
On a beam borrowed from the moon

Hold me there inside her
Keep me for all time
In honeysuckled splendor
Till my words no longer rhyme

Seeking a Dream

Topic: DreamsandWishes



Night slips in like a lover
As dusk caresses day
Darkness then, soon descends
Rapes remaining light away

Mentally at midnight
Wide-awake and wishing well
These maladies of memory
Will rapidly dispel

While body aches for slumber
My mind longs to review
Candlelight and shadows
Visions there of you

An arch seen through a doorway
A table resting leg
Hands that move like clockwork
As I begin to beg

Touch me while I’m dreaming
Sleep please visit soon
Take me now to her somehow
On a beam borrowed from the moon

Hold me there inside her
Keep me for all time
In honeysuckled splendor
Till my words no longer rhyme

An enticing melody of love and moonlit splendor, a flawless dream interpreted through exquisite words and rhyme... Gorgeous images of lovers entwined, sensous candle-light, and endles night filled with enticing illusions. For a 'just because', that's pretty damn good! As always, everything is perfect, poetry at its best. Merci beaucoup for sharing your sought out dream. May La Luna carry you to her on moonlit wings. All my love. Forever,

Your dear friend/fan,

Stephy! *LOVES THIS!*

The rhyme works well. Sort of wistful, but nice. Good job.

Very sensuous. Enjoyable reading, my friend! The alliteration is especially good. Alliteration is always a good thing, methinks.

Naz,

I love the verse and phrasing of this poets' poem! Well said and beautiful. To me it speaks of an active mind that won't turn off. Infact, doesn't seem to want to turn off unless it can capture some dreams and make them reality.

Well done, sir

Will

Not that you don't have enough comments already, lol.
Adore two lines in particular
Touch me while I'm dreaming
and
In honeysuckled splendor.

ah, such sweet rapture....nazzy, you outdone yourself you crafty little wizard!
And on a night like this, where the moon doth glow like a candle burning in
a blackened sky, this ever sweet and somewhat tortured creation, dripping
with senual emotion and intimate remembrance, is much adored and
appreciated by one. As always, I am humbled by your sweet perfection.

It is a pleasure to experience your tremendous gift.

~Breezy
