Dream Song.

by Poet on the Piano   Dec 11, 2011


This is my dream song-
where my future will melodize
into the present,
taking the caresses of two hearts
and letting their sincerity
tell of soft, tangible
sun days...
in an endless circle
of oneness

Outside St. Peter's Square
watching the golden clock swing
as lovers, families, strangers
revolve around the sky
with a fluent purpose.

Outside in Venice on a fresh
October night,
hearing sweet guitars pulse
and the layout of our fingers
exploring
the holds of each other arms.

I imagine us around the world
blending into the poignant chaos....
yet standing at the
rise of the mountains,
a new, permanent part
to what the world sees..

This is my dream song-
where I marry him
when first light greets us....
a white gown
billowing down my legs,
and my husband
unveiling my face
so I may never part
from the one, shining man
I give my soul to.

    Wow...this is one of those poems that just leaves me dumbfounded and at a complete loss for words.

    Such an enchanting piece that flows so effortlessly and your choice of words...flawless from start to end.

    I especially liked the part about fingers exploring the hold of one anothers arms.

    There is a typo in the stanza about the golden clock. Revolve is misspelled.

    Brilliantly written!!!!

    That last stanza gave me chills... such a stanza I can relate to right now :) I thought this was beautiful, with a perfect title. I love the imagery how you took us through different, yet very specific places, perhaps that truly mean a lot to you. Very vivid!

    That was so tender, so flowing, so nostalgic and sto melodious. The incorporation of fantasy in different places Venice, St. Peter's, Church..... is magnificent. It kind of boosts the spirit of the poem, and also it adds the flavor of aliveness to it. It hits home for me. I think it made me feel at ease with its dreamy tone, and the small descriptions of movement before declaration of husband and wife. Way to go MaryAnne, I can see you took off your dark veil which you ace :)
    Nonetheless, you penned this romantic, free-wheeling piece with a unique touch. A-M-A-Z-I-N-G
