Another long quiet night
and I am wide awake,
yet I still dream or perhaps
it just seems like a...

a bloom of unbelievable beauty,
mesmerizing pristine petals
in tender pastel colors,
the sweetest fragrance
of any springtime breeze,
an enchanting vision
touching every part
of my heart,
creating a desire I have
never before known,
growing on the other side
of a bordering wall
as high as it is wide,
separating southern valleys
from northern boundaries,
past maple tree sentries,
beyond the locked garden gate
at the end of a flagstone walkway,
just out of my reach...

Wow, I guess it could be...
but if so, it is a dream that I will not give up on
until it comes true and I hold this
beautiful flower close to me...to never let go

Forever is not long enough,
*I'll ask for an extension

~

Sweet French toast kisses
Morning coffee embraces
*Waking with a smile

A full moon shines
this cloudless sky
and watches as
I pass it by

While riding on
a shooting star
that’s taking me
to where you are

Neath heaven’s gaze
illumined bright
so I may bring
my love this night

It matters not
where you might be
as long as you
will wait for me

I’m flying fast
as I can go
if you look up
you’ll see my glow

That’s me up there
so high above
now floating down
with all my love

So hopefully
you'll open wide
your heart so I
may land inside
