Notes About The Poem

Reveries

Dreams, soft like a Southern rain
Silence every tear, ease every pain
Gently kissing away darkness, disdain
Whispering serenity that will ever reign

Fantasies, twisting hope into the night
Washing away every doubt with light
Breathing promises so lovely they excite
Harboring feelings that touch and unite

Visions, lovely as the fresh fallen snow
In hues so vibrant and alive they glow
Lifting each uncertainty with the flow
Tender affections the heart will bestow

Refrain:

Inspirations caress with a joy in the soul
Stirring laughter, pleasure that will console
Drifting, like dewdrop’s thoughtful stroll
Lingering feelings who love will make whole

Gina, this is as light as the tickle of a feather. It just flows like a stream with beautiful, serene images - "twisting hope into the night." Congratulations on your win my friend! Hugs and blessings.
