A Memory - A Dream: II

I awoke in a dream

and

pushing away the covers

arose

 

The lights dazzled me

a bright shimmer of aurora

speckles of play

 

Footsteps light on the carpet

parquet leaping aside

slipping down the steps

 

and the outside

grasping eternity

dimmed and paled

 

Morbid voices and

forgotten faces

but I cannot see––––––––

 

and murmurs to my peace

soft touches and

distant kisses

 

I awoke in my dreams

and

pulling my lovers close

went back to sleep.
