"Candlelight..."

"Candlelight..."

I wandered soft the eve
and tasted moment's clear of
thought and wish
and listened to life's echoes
whispering near
I dreamed in the moonlight
shaped fantasies in clouds
and leaned chin on arms
gazing into endless whirls.

I dreamed awake
and in wakened dreams found
candle's light so soft within
and eyes so gently looking back
I found myself lost...within.

... losing myself in the soft tender reflections your thoughts have created...

A great poem with a nice flow. I very much enjoyed reading this. One of my favorites. Keep writing!

it is only a quiet, uncluttered mind that can taste the reflection of candlelight within, see beyond self and settle into a dreamland of the possibility of clouds ...

so soothing, chris. worthy of a *sigh.* ;)

excellent, Simple and sweet and brought back memories so clear of gentler days gone by for me!

I wandered and dreamed and listened and found . . . you put all the best words together

[Larry Dyson]

flows gracefully from thought to spoken word to manifest feeling...
