it was as if

dusk arising

 

It was as if i had wings
and to fly, this wonderous flight
through enchantment's
night forest of peaceful content,
lifted upon translucent double wings.

 

I see myself, as I, ..out of body,
follow this flight through wonderland
amid cool friendliness of majestic elders.
Whispering, encouraging, reassuring
a cool airy creation of serene peace.

 

         And now,
         aside a darkness of moon glazed lake
         my winged lover reaches, a momentary embrace,
         where a kiss of forever's promise dances upon our lips
         turning to a joyous smile, then gone! are her impish eyes
         and so teased by nymph agility I chase her delight,
         low across the glaze, to our isle of promise.

 

Turning now beneath a quilt
of softening comfort,
peace eases me again
into the depths of slumber.
The reassurance of passion
becalmed my beating wings.

 

         As jealously the forest waits.

    Beautifully Written! Why aren't all my dreams
    as beautiful as yours!
    Chances are it will be a greedy leprechaun

    Hey Dusk... who's to say the dreams aren't real and life is? I'm never sure...... good one.

    I would like to believe that you are just recalling a reality from a parallel universe and have brought us along on an immensely romantic journey

  • spilleronsheet

    Wow what a wonderful imagery
    Your hand played magic dear Dusk
    With sparkles of wanderlust you carried to a beautiful journey
    So beautiful and charming
    Loved the last lines of yours
    “ Turning now beneath a quilt
    of softening comfort,
    peace eases me again

    As jealously the forest waits.”

    Such endearing emotions rings inside my heart
    So true connecting the reality of me
    And what finishing lines
    Marvellous
    “As jealousy the forest awaits”
