Dream

Her arms outstretched and waiting 
to see her love once more
She stands within the sands of time
as sea gulls rest upon the shore
Her eyes close in concentration
as she begins to take her flight
On wings only seen to her
she flies throughout the night
He knows she will return 
as she's always done before
So he picks a rose of crystal
to show his love once more
She sees him in the distance
and her heart picks up beat
He's the world she had hoped for 
even though in dreams they meet
This life they share together
to him, is sweet as morning dew
One day this dream they share
will possibly come true

This is so lovely! Dreams can be a special place, shared moments or simply love as in this. Wonderful imagery, flow and rhyme. Michael

As a seafarer, I AM CAPTIVATED! hehehe! You know, sometimes having a clinical wife (she's a nurse) can be humdrum! She don't appreciate poetry that much! If she has given me this poem, well I could die in bliss hahaha!!! Thanks for sharing it Alana Lady Of The Sea (hope you don't mind). Brgds. George

Hey! I like this. I don't know why but I thought of the Norwegian Lady, a statue in Virginia Beach, looking out to sea, as if waiting for her sailor to return. Iguess it's just that sailor mystique. God Bless. Vince
