Dew of Quiet in the Garden

You give my soul thoughts that collide with magical lands of the moon
And follow songs with an urge to be a cloud in your sky
Rushing along unbound head over heels
With a spirit that grows
Like a flower of past times, until I long for you now
To be the dew of quiet in the gardens
Where I roam

My eyes light to meet yours again as fate melts into a substance
That penetrates the delivery of my own destiny
Then you gently take me to drink
From the ground I kiss
As if I am a bottomless sea that lives for all ages
Sent to make you know you are loved
When morning comes

You give my soul thoughts that are ever speaking as tears of joy
They are guarded by breezes in the palest moonlight
I know that when I take my last breath
Into your arms of love I will fly
To sweetly surrender my own song you discovered
As the dew of quiet in the gardens
Where I roam

Author's Note

Just me dreaming.............

This is ancient balladeering; obviously, predates Shakespear, by a lot.
I'd love to know, Neva, who it is you're singing to. Seems more like a god than a man.
Still, while this work appears to be purposely woven to approach concepts with a roundabout flourish, it manages to convey so very much, in an undeniably endearing way. Neva's way.

[David W Moore III]

Quite melodious, this is a song in its own right, that you sweetly surrender, genius. This is beautiful Neva.

[Lilly Negoi]

you do realize that "just you dreaming" means that all your readers will dream together with you, don't you? :) "you give my soul thoughts that are ever speaking" - *sighing here*...

The imagery here is really very good! I love the lines and so the words you used which makes it so powerful! Great job!

[BlackCl0ud]

It never fails to paint a picture in ones mind of their own garden which they roam. The language is delicately woven into a blanket wich I would love to have on a cold night.
