My Heart Sighs for You
One glorious day you drifted this way and life was ne'er going to be the same It was early spring, hearing bluebirds sing in fervent sun rays that’d burnished for days. We walked along an enchanted pathway where wild flowers grew in flamboyant hue Creatures in their prime having an ace time in gleeful display as we passed their way. It became clear we'd become near and dear our destiny, not a momentary We sang filled with joy no one could destroy dancing among sprites till the orb of night. We sighed when stood on a bridge o'er a brook reflections entranced as lustrous stars pranced Phantoms of the night ascended in flight they'd been awed as we become enamoured. The magical scenes drifted off downstream I woke feeling blue, you'd faded from view Never never land’s where we fly off to in sweet dreams I constantly dream of you. It brings on a sigh and still makes me cry when I memorise our last sad goodbye.

I have found that it is so much more profound to lose a loved one. God bless you, sweet one.

Yet, when we reach this age, we are left with nothing but dreams. Belle, it seems as if you had a wonderful romantic dream. Regrettably, you were had to up so early. Good luck with the contest ( missing details)

As long as we have our memories and dreams getting old isn’t as bad as it may seem. Have only just entered this into a contest, thanks for the comments and good luck wish Lasaad ~ Belle

Hi Tom, I’ve added to the poem since you read it and the romance only lasts till the end of stanza four. Thank you, I appreciate your comments… Belle

Pity it was a dream and a lovely one too. But what can one do when we arrive at such an age, except dream. Lovely poem, Belle.

Thank you Milton, I didn’t see the end coming either, that’s how it when one writes poetry the pen runs away with itself and you surprise yourself… Belle
