Wish Upon a Dandelion Wisp

my thoughts adrift
endless on the horizon's edge
lingering in the warmth
of this day

you stand beneath
the folds of eyes
awake in dreams

i tremble amidst
the effortless breath of wind
tenderly stroking me
with the torridity
of a  midday sigh

wiping dry
the mist that falls
from lonely eyes

my tears alight
on the feathery puffs
of the last dandelion 

i whisper softly
lips against its folds
with a kiss
it drifts
alone

A wisp of a whisper floating gently to our eyes. There is a softness to your words that flows over me as I read this wonderful poem. It drifts effortlessly upon the gentle morning breeze. Beautifully done my friend.
