I Wait For You

The hours pass and yet I wait for you The minutes taunt me each with wicked glee I wonder if my dreams will soon come true Will you appear and make sweet love to me? My heart about to wilt from lack of care I hold to hope you’ll take me in your arms Plant kisses on my body here and there Envelope me with all your lovely charms And so I wait, reclined on perfumed bed Lost in my dreams of all that will transpire The start will be a kiss on lips so red A symbol of the flames of coming fire The night has gone, and you have not appeared T’was all a dream, just as my heart had feared Eileen Manassian Ghali

THIS reads like a dream my little Desert Orchid, superb sonnet, I think you have this form where you want it. Take care, Richard

No, Richard....I don't have it where I want it....Well, yes, I do and I don't...Ultimately, I want it in some poetry book somewhere.... :( Will I ever have my dream fulfilled before I die? One wonders.........thanks for the visit.

You should write love scenes for movies, they would be instant hits!

As Anne-Lise said, some dreams can come true. Ah, the power of choice to embrace what really is...and what really shouldn't be. Loads to think about...awesome!
