Hidden Dreams Behind the Press of Glass

every year he shakes me emotions falling with flakes inside this ball wound up playing I'm dreaming of a white Christmas" does he know i'm dreaming of his touch? he sits stirring his cocoa while my thoughts stir every sip allures imagination yearning desires to feel the press of lips inviting against mine the flick of tongue whispered secrets against flesh the feel of his edges within the trace of my fingertips the pulse of his heart in the echoes of mine the rise and fall of his breath in the shallows of night as the music stops i watch him slip away as i kiss this glass that contains my dreams November 23,2019 Stuck in a Christmas Globe Poetry Contest Sponsored by Bobby May

Thank you so much Juliet. It’s where my muse went with the theme glad for some positive feedback. Hugs ... I love your latest poems but cannot comment on them and congrats on your recent win as well. I couldn’t soup mail you either :(

This s absolutely delightful and so delicate, Sandy. just love how it ends. Even though the season's 180 degrees removed season-wise, it's reminiscent of Sinatra's 'Summer Wind, light and delicate. Bravo! Great entry for the contest. Cheers, Gershon
