Chris Green Poet Free verse

Forbidden Nights

Forbidden nights

He dreams of forbidden nights
where oceans breathe sensually
and timeless thoughts count down moments
in sandcastle siftings…

 shadows carve the night,
a lonely silhouette stares

while distant shores weep
as his dreams disappear along 
a thin blurred horizon faintly whispering
farewell with the tide…

an empty moon falls
taking his hopes with it

Andrea Dietrich March 7, 2017 at 5:29 PM Chris, you write so much like this poet that I used to love reading. Her name is SAndy Adams but she lost contact with me at least two years ago. Always such beautiful words. Love this. Chris Green March 7, 2017 at 5:45 PM Thank you so very much Andrea. I am happy my style brings back some fond memories for you.
