Where do Dreams Go

Where do Dreams Go

 

He dreams

yes he dreams 

of sage and of leather 

 

Of her image

reflected in mirrors 

and in the fire of cabochons

 

He dreams

yes he dreams

of floating and flying with her

 

Somewhere lost

without wanting, or wishing

to be found, until they are dust

 

He dreams

yes he dreams

of the things they might do together

 

In the snatches

of time made in moments

they allow to quietly break through

 

He dreams

yes he dreams

of bergamot, sage and of leather

 

While tenderly stroking

a breast with a feather and milking

the juice of yet another new day with her

 

He dreams

yes he dreams,

but where do those dreams go

 

Maybe lost in the ether,

mid vastness of quilt perhaps, or

buried neath mountainous pillows of snow ..
