A Dream To Dream

Light across the horizon
She stands upon the shore
Whispers to the wind
Bring back my love again.

Delicate as butterfly wings
She drifts, closing her eyes
Dreams of a dream
Of days gone by.

Wind whispers to the dark skies
As rolling thunder slowly dies
A moment two hearts feel entwined
Bound by timeless earthly ties.

If only time  could change
If she could gaze upon his face again
She closes her eyes again
To dream of dreams gone by.

Thanks Linda. Hoping to get this pen going in the new year as it has been very unflowing in 2014.
