MAGIC CAUGHT

nephilim56 ( Norman Dickson)

Whispers born
Upon the lips
Within a dream
Sweet words kissed
The slanted moment
Of a awkward breath
Whose fleeting sound
Died its death.

Warm air which
Moved your hair
Its rings and curls
Who did but dare
To open up
A scented gaze
A lonely road
A strange new place.

Your heartbeat ragged
Upon pursuing night
Tears restrained
Within your sight
Each step  which leads
To brighter thoughts
An hour reached
Its magic caught.

    Such romance in a poem and in a dream. Nicely worded Norman you captured the elusive nature of love and dreams and tied them together. A wonderful poem and a fave

    Good write N.
    Yes - magic caught - a bus? Or was it a mirage?! lol.

    • nephilim56 ( Norman Dickson)

      had to be a mirage lol

      • orchidee

        Will a bus EVER turn up? Has one EVER turned up? lol. Or else - what 's the point of that bus stop? Is it just a piece of junk street furniture standing there?!

        • nephilim56 ( Norman Dickson)

          Maybe its a piece of urban art that has fooled us all lol

          Norman, this brought back that feeling of encountering someone or something that changes the atmosphere around you without a word being spoken. The poem captures those quiet moments that somehow become unforgettable. Really enjoyed this one, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛
