Beyond The Edge Of My Dream

This is probably the shortest poem ~ Love song ~ Love story, call it what you will, that I have ever written, even when the title is taken into consideration.





Beyond The Edge Of My Dream  -  01 Jul 13

I wait for you





Then I started thinking that the structure could be changed without altering the words.




Waiting  -  01 Jul 13

I wait for you
Beyond the edge
Of my dream





Which version works best?

Devise  -  31 Jul 10

I'm working so hard
trying to devise a way
to bring you to me


Massage  -  31 Jul 10

Longing for your touch
Loving ... healing ... sensuous
whole body massage


Abandon  -  31 Jul 10

You, with abandon,
danced around me ~ bringing you
right into my life


Edge + Mountain + Post  -  31 Jul 10

In the mountain pass
a post-horn sounds ~ coach arrives
at "Edge Of Beyond"


Wonder  -  01 Aug 10

New worlds of wonder
just a step away from here
~ open mind  ... and go





There will be more ...

Asphalt  -  27 Jul 10

Searching for you now
you left no trace of footprints
in asphalt deserts


Hook  -  28 Jul 10

You know what you did ...
bait was set, I swallowed it,
hook, line and sinker


Beyond  -  28 Jul 10

In the spaces beyond
all dreams and imaginings
I will wait for you


Foremost  -  29 Jul 10

In my mind ... foremost
thoughts of you always with me
I'll never forget


Fantasy  -  29 Jul 10

Fantasy ... I play
stirring my dreams ~ bringing thoughts
up to the surface





I don't think that "Beyond" was inspired by Rumi's poem because, at that time, I don't think that I was aware of his writings ~ though it does feel like one of his.

There will be more Haikū and things to come soon.
