A Dream

January 26, 2010

Softly as a feather
You brush against my cheek
Quietly as a whisper
You speak to me in my sleep

As gently as a lover
You caress my skin
As profoundly as a song
I hear your voice within

Notes so clear
A touch so real
A dream in flight
Oh, so near

Fluttering … Flittering …
Your gossamer wings
Right before my eyes -
My impossible dream

    Is there a stronger word than beautiful ? A stronger feeling than love, a deeper emotion that touched? Perhaps there is, so I will simply say;

    I was deeply touched and love your beautiful poetry.

    Very well worded:
    ..’Fluttering … Flittering …
    Your gossamer wings
    Right before my eyes -..’
    Beautiful poem.Thanks for sharing.
    God bless.

    I like the layout, the overall feel.

    I went back and forth on ‘soft as a feather’ since that image is rather used but I think it still works even with that slightly over used image.

    Good work.

    Beautiful. You know when you read something and it makes you feel something, yet you can’t put it into words? Well, that’s what this poem did to me… very gentle, very soft, very fragile, very temptous (is that a word?)…and these words still don’t describe it – special poem!
