Last Night I Dreamt

I search your woods, I walk them long
Through every twilight mood and beat;
Sometimes,  the mirage peals  a storm
Or gushes rain as ferns entreat.

Last night the fireflies bright as stars
Pound on my chest like stones' mild tap
A whispered breeze speaks our memoirs
On hanging vines as buds unwrap.

Lovely Nette. I love the way the poem comes full circle with "your woods". Much mystery in your dreams - I hope love is not at threat. Perhaps the dream you dream tonight will offer solace in those same woods and the whispered breeze of memoirs will rouse more fantasy. I love your command of the English language in your poetry. Very creative and enchanting. Joe
