Dreams of Eden

The title line "Dreams of Eden" had been wandering through my mind for the whole of the day yesterday, suddenly it all seemed to come together with a series of songs that are often in my mind.  All but the last stanza was completed before I went to bed and part of the final stanza appeared when I was in bed, Muse reminded me to make a note of what came at that time.

When you finish reading the poem I would suggest following the links to YouTube to listen to my references.





Dreams of Eden  -  01 Oct 12


Remembered hours
The dreams of Eden
Still echo through my mind
And slumber with the thoughts
I still harbour
Of our times together

In restless dreams
I walked
Through places that others
Never knew
But only in my Eden
I have seen

Splinters of evening
I feel you ~ I touch you ~ you touch me
Our Souls still wander
Through the gardens
And taste the flowers
Of Eden

Everything changes
Worlds dance on their way
Round the suns like
Glittering dust
But always we have
Our Eden
