A New Book

Like a voice in the dark I hear you speak. You call to me in my sleep. I hear your voice and I smile if only for a little while. How sweet the dream of starting anew. How lovely the thought of being with you. You make me want to write a new book and I am so tempted to take a look. But there you are and here am I, so far away like a bird in the sky. Will you sail down on a cool breeze? And will you take us through the trees? I'll follow your lead and see where it goes. Maybe we'll find love. Who knows?

The book is very long, Darlene. And, I wrote this "chapter" a long time ago but it is as if I wrote it yesterday. Thank you for reading my poetry. Carole Duet

If I wrote a book I would have to "claim" it was fiction. Haha Thank you for your encouragement, Dan.
