JC Brul Poet Ekphrasis

Lost In a Dream

lost in a winter dream~
beneath the indigo sky
the melancholic music soars
echoing from distant shores
making dainty daffodils dance
in the bleak starlit eve.

snowflakes whitened my hair
as I chase the evening glow

searching where the melodies flow
and there I find you
under the moonlight shadow
singing my old favourite song
while stardust sprinkles in my palms
as I run to you.



20 February 2021





Notes: While listening to Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's Piano Concerto No. 21 - Andante.
