Dreams Dancing A Dance Into Retreating Time I hasten to see worrying worries flown In abyss of chastening chastened fires, For decades she held tight, loving love, her own, Soft melody, with noted notes that inspire, Fallen spirit given grasping grasps at hope, Dreams dancing a dance into retreating Time, Resplendent ardor, its aching aches a rope, Wrapping blessed blessings true, sweet and sublime! There within bluest blues, sweet angel resides: Her feet prancing a prance in bright ruby shoes Through mirroring mirrors where no secret hides With laughing laughs, tossing treasures two by two's. Where dreaming dreams and only love's heart abides Resplendent loving love sings, and then decides! Robert J.

I love the idea of dreams dancing. Beautifully penned; great vivid imagery; they really danced out of this poem.

Thank you my friend. I did truly enjoy reworking and competing this old poem fragment. Especially so, since my finishing my Achilles poem has stalled.... after just 7 verses. Which even those I may have to toss away..

Hi Robert, reading this poetic gem my emotions are stirred. You are the master of the sonnet. Your words stir such strong visions to come to the surface. I love the depth of the content Robert. Another exceptional piece from your golden pen. A fave. Have a wonderful Sunday. Your friend always....Mike.

Thank you my friend. I decided to rework this old fragment into a poem because my venture back into finishing my Achilles saga, is a bit stalled. I want to match equally the other two parts , thus making it hard to figure out how/where to start in the final part.
