Breathless as a summer sun, glowing Intimate, like the kiss or touch Light, whispering joy over the spirit, flowing With tenderness – gentling even The darkness, the doubt, the dread Echoes that drift uneasy through my head Heavy as the shadows promising Silhouettes of abiding faith, hope, grace Wisdom that flavors the miracles Erasing every suspicion, each uncertainty With prayers that awaken the chance Inspiring, healing and guiding the dance Through melancholy, rich and vibrant Hues of laughter, happiness thriving Amber, scarlet with hesitant mocha Blushing zest of autumn, breathless Pouring out enthusiasm in swirling leaves Swaying in the wind’s colorful spin Mystery embracing the music of a heart Filled to overflowing with wonder Astonished at the tender caress of calm Serenity bursting through the soul Piercing the emotions with sensations Mists of affection and nostalgic sighs Rustling the dewy reflections of a love Shining through the eyes, where silent Dreams confide in the actuality of passion Agreeing to the meeting of inspiration Alive inside the fantasy, the aspiration The imagination who awakens each vision With a sense of delicious treatment For the one who knows this desire is more Than merely a dream – it is the heart’s Revelation and prediction – a wild guess From the secrets between the lines Poetry of the unsung hero, the mirror Rhythm and rhyme – the wisp of insight It is the dream that awakens the night To believing in the intensity of the Son’s light As I dream poetry contest sponsored by Mystic Rose Rose August 5, 2022
