Song In the Breeze

Her voice was a dulcet melody
 Which I always liked to hear
 But now that voice is silent
 And the silence I can't bear

 Moonlit shadows play among the trees
 Darting to and fro with ease
 A tune rustling in the leaves does tease
 As I hear her song in the breeze

 As Luna makes its nightly commute
 I drift off in dreamy pursuit
 Hoping her voice in dreams I'll hear
 But dawn comes and finds me there

 The morning sun in golden gleam
 Awakens me from my dream
 But just a simple hello from you my dear
 Would be like music to my ears

Beautiful, in every way. You are waiting for the melody of her- just a touch along the wind. In dreams, your heart can feel her. She will whisper softly to you. Of that I am sure. Because, anything can happen in a dream. This is so romantic. Simply breathtaking. Soft sigh. ~ Brandy
