Perhaps I was half asleep. I always felt drowsy at night. I sensed her warm body snuggling near me. She put her head on my shoulders. Her cuddles sent me to seventh heaven. I only hoped she did not mind The stubble on my unshaven face. Still I was elated when as I felt Her smooth downy face next to mine. How fragrant was her exquisite hair, I guessed it resembled a Soleil Neige, An elegant and mesmerising perfume. I took a deep breath, indulging In its fruity nectar…so I opened my eyes. Only to see an empty bed and a lumpy pillow.

It was the stubble that did it for me, the earthiness and unadorned intimacy. I am sorry for your pain but you must have had true beauty. Elizabeth

Beautiful dream while it lasted! Shifting attention gently within, we feel love’s ethereal embrace humming within our radiant heart

Following your verses of elegance and compassion, there were sobs. The expression of feeling is at the heart of poetry, and this passage does just that. You have consistently been an outstanding writer. Having the opportunity to look at such magnificent poetry was a privilege. Wishing you a pleasant evening. Stay protected and know that you are in my thoughts and prayers at this time and always.

There's a passionate lover in you .. dear Victor. What a beautiful romantic poem ! At least in dreams one can enjoy such moments, though facing the sad reality on waking up is sad!Let the memories of such beautiful moments, once you had help you to live on....

Victor wow. This is a favorite. What an incredible theme. It is sad and wonderful. Wonderful to read the ending that you were dreaming and it was a genius part of the Poem you have created. Sad because you were disappointed and it was merely a dream, or wishful thinking in your tired state of mind. I love this. A POTD contender I feel. Exceptional and clever!!!
