And So I Dream of You

I want to stroll with you
 along the twisting paths where the 
 canopy of limbs bare shade
 Hands held softly
 

I want to sit with you
 under the old cypress tree where the
 limb bends a sunken seat
 Hands held tenderly
 

I want to talk with you
 of our souls melding force where the 
 breeze only hears our voice
 Hands held confidently
 

I want to dance with you
 in the eve of our days where the
 golden years sashay by
 Hands held joyfully
 

And so I dream…….of you
 Wishfully 
 Prayerfully

The hands of time in beautiful rhyme. The earth did gently sing. A romantic heart sits quietly, hoping for a ring.
