An unexpected dream visit |
Walking along the clouded path, Following the scent of flowers; Listening to rolling waters, Rushing crystal clear down the stream- Tumbling over rocks in a dream. Hiking, your happy smile flashes, You laugh, we talk of many things. Our children, our life and our love - Strolling along the path, my thoughts Tumbling over rocks in a dream. Wearing your khaki shorts, but your Standard buttoned shirt now a black Short-sleeved tee with a high crew neck. I remember this struck me odd, Tumbling over rocks in a dream. A forest devoid of color, Black shale path underneath our feet I spot brown boulders, a lit path Leading toward rushing water Tumbling over rocks in a dream As I reached the worn path’s entrance With bright blooming flowers, I crouched, Face upturned, smiling to my love- You disappeared, vanished at night, Tumbling over rocks in a dream. The path to pure running water Spilled into dissolute blackness. Only love's flower vibrant show Remained by the path to the stream, Tumbling over rocks in a dream. 2/9/2017 30 lines Context ▼ |
