A Note In the Wind Nw

The note that's written tells the tale
of star-lit nights of yesterday
   that is no more
they have gone with the wind,
and appear now in ashen dreams
where memories cry, in an endless sky,
that stretches across time
   filled with drifting faces I've kissed
in revealing moments of romantic notions
when hearts bloomed from hunger's yearning
among the gardens of fragrant scents
giving birth to emotional ecstasy,
drenching the soul with sensual realms
from the wondrous eyes of love
this world of dreams and illusions,
tumble across my mind, with a wind, tossed note,
tied to the brambles of yesterday

"memories cry, in an endless sky", "hearts bloomed from hunger's yearning", "tied to the brambles of yesterday" - great lines of poesy. A nostalgically beautiful poem with great images and imageries. Congratulations!

"Dreams and illusions, tied to the brambles of yesterday." A hopeful, tender thought, yet emotional in its context. The wind will always carry reality to another place, moments as well. This beautiful in every way. Congratulations Frederic, on Poem of the Day. My best to you. ~ Brandy
