William J. Jr. Atfield Poet Rhyme

Satin Sheets a Grave Yard For a Million Dreams

Satin Sheets
A grave yard for a million dreams

Light of day, exposes what darkness of night, hides
upon platinum, satin skies, above an emerald green sea,
where- upon the waves of passion – you and I take rides,
leaving behind – in a cloud – dream children from you and me.

Children who – upon the light of dawn- dream no more, just die
as they leave behind their essence, upon a satin platinum sky,
as we drift in and out – splash about – side by side lie,
before all comes to an end, you ready, my friend, say goodbye.

I wonder what could have been ?, where their essence will go ?
These unborn children, without dreams, dreams I will never know.
As the dreams in my head begin to fade from view,
I get out of bed, and lost, is all I thought I knew.

Richard Palmer May 25, 2014 at 7:59 PM so true not only satin sheets,cotton too lol,but I think you miscalculated,its Zillions lol,,,great write love how you put this together Williams William J. Jr. Atfield May 26, 2014 at 2:19 PM Hello Richard Palmer : Thank you once again Richard, for stopping by, for “ great write love how you put this together Williams ” your glowing comment. Yes, “ sheets,cotton too lol ” how true !!!, along with grass, car seats -when cars had front and back seats big enough – and a thousand other delightful places . Maybe for a virile young man like yourself “ I think you miscalculated,its Zillions lol ”, but, as for an old man like I was then, and even more so now, a million would be an exaggeration . Bill .
