Dream Flowers


Muse just gave me a gentle push and what was going to be a small poem, an Haikū or a Gogoyhka suddenly grew into something much bigger.





Dream Flowers - 04 Aug 10

Flowers clutched
In her sleeping hand
Not crumpled
Held tenderly
A token of his love
Carried into her dream
To fill that world
In ways
Beyond imagining

In sleep
She still feels his touch
Gently brushing her body
Caressing her
Moving intimately
Over and within
And as she sleeps
She smiles
Sighs
Reaches for him

Takes him
Pulls him closer
To kiss
Hold
Caress him in the way
He caressed her
And more

Flowers exchanged
In dream
As they were
Awake
In love
Sleep on
Into tomorrow





This poem has a distinctly different feel to my usual ones - do you like what you see?

  1. carried into dream world
    the wonders of today,
    held tight,
    to guide along the way
    touched by wonder
    sleeping bodies remember
    the embrace of day
    they pull it to themselves
    and exchange
    'flowers'
    of love, joy, and wonder
    to hold on to
    as we go about our days
    to remember
    the way back
