Here Upon a Silent Wind

Here upon a silent wind

Here upon a silent wind,
a longing it does fall
As fated feelings float the breeze
in answers soon to call

Of what I am imagining,
the truth shall somehow be
If after all is said and done
your love remains with me

My thoughts they paint the shadows
in a smile I now wear
With each delivered promise made
within your heart to share

So come inside my waiting arms,
 a perfect night is here
For this shall be my only need
to have you always near

These dreams are for believers
every eye that peers the sky
Gazing to this velvet night
of moon beams soaring high

Casting forth decisions of
a wisdom ever true
To whisper on this silent wind
and say that I love you

Good night Soupers

Wonderfully hopeful write Chris, yes believe in love, and it will come to you, as dreams of believers do come true, love your writing, although not so much time to read as before. Take care!

Very delightful, you truly have a way with writing love poems. I like your use of "velvet night" and "thoughts paint the shadows" in this one.

Chris, this sounded like a lovely ballad. If you lived at the time of the troubadours you could no doubt have been a very happy traveling minstrel:) Amitiés

Love the alliteration "Here upon a silent wind, // a longing it does fall // As fated feelings float the breeze", wonderful. That t he wind may carry your love to her. Sleep well my friend :)
