Andrea Dietrich Poet Rhyme

Dreams of You

I return to sleep – where dreams live on and on
thinking of a love that now is gone -
and how in youth I’d felt blue
until then. . into
my dreams came
YOU -
a bright flame
that ardently grew.
But fires die. Can they renew?
Sometimes! If I wake at early dawn,
I return to sleep – where dreams live on and on.

JC Brul July 21, 2020 at 10:53 PM Very beautiful in a spectacular form! I wish I could make a poem in this form,too...I am inspired dear Andrea. To my faves this goes.. Andrea Dietrich July 24, 2020 at 3:33 PM thanks so much. I was inspired to do my third Andaree by Joseph's contest but needed something for one of Brian's many contests, so I used one of my old Andarees for Joseph!
