Every Echo

~ I stood all alone ‘neath a moon brightly shining, my mind sent aloft in its magical view I counted each step on a path ever winding, whispered my dreams in an echo to you Picked up a stone that was smooth to my fingers, imagined your skin in the palm of my hand Inhaled the scent of a magnolia blossom, sweetly your scent drifted through where I stand Felt the cool breeze on my lips sorely aching, seeking your own just to taste for a while Longing my arms wrapped so tightly around you, hearing our hearts beat in harmonic style Searched for your eyes midst the stars in the heavens, missing you so as the night bids adieu Saying a prayer that you’ve heard every echo, for you are my dream that I hope will come true ~

I love the concept of an echo repeating until your dream comes true. "Searched for your eyes midst the stars in the heavens, missing you so as the night bids adieu" my favorite line. This is so romantic Chris. It contains your special imprint. Beautiful and a Fave! : ) xxoo

Chris, your poetry is so amazing. This was nearly a sonnet except you did not have an ending couplet. So glad you are here at Soup!
