Upon my lips, I felt a kiss In a dream, it surely was bliss My heart was dancing frolic flips I felt a kiss, upon my lips. Knew it was you, my prince of dreams Appearing in desirous scenes Holding hands we two, off we flew My prince of dreams, knew it was you. We came to ground on foreign shore Excited we were to explore Of beauty we were both spellbound On foreign shore, we came to ground. Walking on shore, we heard a band Playing music extremely grand Then danced till we could dance no more We heard a band, walking on shore. The dream ended, time to fly home Back to me being home alone Our tryst had been truly splendid Time to fly home, the dream ended.

Dear ink, thank you very much indeed, I write in rhyme mainly because I can’t seem to do Free Verse, I’ve tried and can’t get the form to flow well, as other poets do…. Beryl
