She was back,
Back with me.
Lying by my side,
That smiling face
Looking at me.
I looked into her eyes,
Deep into her eyes,
And saw the love,
The love she had,
She had for me.
Knowing she would see
The love in my eyes,
The love I had,
I had for her.
We brought our lips
Together once more,
And that kiss took us
Took us to a world
A world remembered
For many years.
But then it happened,
I awoke from my dream
And she was gone once more,
But I knew she would be there
Waiting for me to join her,
On that day My Spirit rose,
Rose from my body.

- Comment from author about the poem: I don't remember many dreams but I had this one just before I awoke this morning. The video is one of the pieces of music that Joyce and I played when we were in a swing band back in the day. Joyce played clarinet and was the singer, I played trumpet - great times.

A fine write Gold.
Thanks Orchi.
Andy - It's not often the the theme of love in poetry gets to me (although I will be doing one of my own sometime soon). The ache - the wish to go back to that moment is one I certainly have experienced. By now you must have realised, I can't do the spirit thing - however the memory is warm and whole and I return to it whenever I need comfort.
Take care, Dave
Thank you Dave for your very kind and understanding words. My wife passed away on 30th December last year - her memory will always be with me.
Andy
Ah - I hadn't realised your sorrow - or how close. Sorry.
Take care of yourself, Dave
wonderful,
that you can see the tint of Sunshine through the storms of life is all the armour you need and the music you played with Joyce, will ever reside within each pulse of life,
how proud she must be of you Andy,
stay strong my friend: slice onions and let it all out, then garnish your steak and celebrate, as she too gets to share within each breath you squeeze from life...
Thank you LB, very much appreciated, she still shares her new life with me.
