Nonsense

No sense of smell No sense of touch Oh, how I miss that sense so much I cannot hear the words you say In your inimitable way I cannot taste your lips on mine The way your arms around me entwine I cannot smell the warmth of you And cuddle like we used to do BUT I have vivid dreams at night Dreams that fill me with delight Memories come flooding in And a new life for us begins again The nighttime for us turns into day, Where you and I can laugh and play, A place where we can embrace And look into each other's eyes and face With love so pure We can endure The daylight hours, Until my life on Earth is through And my dream turns into reality with you.

This is surprising. Nothing felt in daylight, but heaven in the nighttime. An enjoyable and original poem. Well done.

This startles me, as I am suddenly launching into surreal dreams, while the days are pretty much dullsville. Intriguing ink, Shirley.
