This is not 1930s Germany
**A dream By Dee Debbie Brooks Restless sleep last night
 I tossed left and right
 Across the everglades and leas 
 I saw you running towards me. 

 Out of breath, you came & clasped my hand
 My heart pounding, I could barely understand, 
 The distress, pain, aches reflected in your eye
 Not a word spoken, yet all said by your sigh. 
 I saw a teardrop rolling down your cheek
 Adios my darling, hitherto we shall never meet
 ‘The dawn arrives’, is what you said silently
 Why can’t you linger awhile? I beseeched fervently.

 Confused paralyzed, I let you go 
 And you were lost, gone – ergo
 As I sat on the broken bench to catch my breath
 I wondered was I, in holding on out of depth? 

 Alas…I pray
 Would you come back into my dream again tonight? 
 Not to leave, but to stay on even after daylight? 
 Not to cause agony & pain
 But to stay, forever remain. ____________ My love, I saw you in your dream I traveled oh so far, waiting for an invitation To be part of you once again Your mind entwined with mine Drove my heart to yours And dreamed me so many times Your dreams become my restless sleep Tossing and turning with touches of your lips That keeps me flooding with touches and love That’s when I was running to you You saw my teardrop, with touch of desperation My heart pounding not understanding The need I had for you, Whispering we should ever meet, Please do not let me go, Your dreams are my dreams Even in the daylight I can taste your love like rain on my tongue You teased my dream with droplets of you With so many wild pleasures that lay in store As our happiness dazzled before our eyes Our dreams made one, that last time …**
