Simple Dreams

by heather   May 11, 2006


The sun sets in golds and blues
promising tomorrow will come true
memories linger of hours passed
crimson hues our shadows cast
eyes of blue, sun-kissed skin
lips like wine as night begins
sun bestows its final wink
surf recedes in shades of pink
mandolin cries faint and low
a warm embrace, a song we know
rest your head, holding tight
moving as one by candle light
bodies sway with gentle sighs
reflections play in loving eyes
like petaled stem from virgin seeds
a soft caress like summers breeze
against the walls and window panes
our shadows play like summer rain
evening passes, music fades
candles dim as the moon invades
filling within our hearts and minds
like loved ones feel, or hopes to find
now an evenings dance to reminisce
you whisper soft as you take my hand
was it all a dream in the evening sand
the promises made not in haste
sweet thoughts of you like honeys taste
between the moon and morning light
simple pleasures as if new
bodies one...but born as two
like starlight wink, high aloft
your warm whispers low and soft
it seems to say without a sound
feelings true will abound
things we feel and things we see
makes us lovers hearts believe
in things not heard and things not seen
in simple love...
in simple dreams...

    What a wonderful write, so full of imagery! The only fault I found is that it wasn't broken into stanza's to give the reader pause where necessary. Otherwise, good job ... hope you post more!
