3:15 Am

~ 

3:15 am…blurred red numbers tell as
I stir, reaching for what I have seen,
grasping for the moments spent in the presence of beauty
as once again you have visited me in a dream…

Pure white flowing whispered fabrics and butterfly trails
awash of waterfalls cascading and mountain top zephyrs,
rock face delights collect on horizons of hope
as softness frames your luminescent face

My eyes focus in the darkness
as your touch remains real on my skin
I am still while stars sleep in crescent moon hammocks
How can this be, I am alone, yet I was not, for I could see

You were searching for me,
barefoot on lush green vistas, daisy paths and buttercup drops 
neath chiffon tufted clouds suspended
above echoes of love songs harmonizing with our heart beats  

Night outside my window keeps time in silent motions, 
slowly sweeping breezes form rhythmic patterns
and poetry settles upon my body
as I continue to write within my now awakened mind 

Destiny beckons in fruited winds
as azure eyes find luscious views of nature’s majesty 
Your skins glows of spring blooms in petal’d bliss
and opal desires in the warmth of the day 

But I had found you…you had found me…
my desperate wanderings have shown me the prize, illumined the joy
lingering in your smile…your eyes
your touch which stays with me even as I lay alone…still dreaming

Sun beamed passions follow you, caress you in
dancing shadows of golden hair
breathing of morning glory skies
and shimmering dragonfly wings

At this early hour, with an apricot moon peering through the curtains
and these words which have found me
playing among my thoughts, I now realize 
that my every dream is you...you are my poetry

Chris, I like this poem. "Night outside my window keeps time in silent motions, slowly sweeping breezes form rhythmic patterns and poetry settles upon my body as I continue to write within my now awakened mind" Very nice night to have and hold. A rightful hour, just before a new dawn. -Richard
