With the Dawn

            With the dawn...I sigh

wishing the night could stay

and softly I could sail

on the dreams that still play

 

A time for us when love

lit up the tender skies

as storms rose deep within

and moonlight filled our eyes

 

While symphonies so sweet

swayed softer than the flow

of tides that took us where

only a secret goes

 

And when the thunder roared

the strength of his embrace

held me in safety and

warms me as I retrace

 

The beauty of his touch

my soft breathless reply

as dreams now sail away....

with the dawn...I sigh

six syllables for most lines .. for me you have created precious moments between lovers .. wrapped them in moonlight, oceans, storms and touch .. i wanted to make the last line of verse three
only secrets can go; and last line last verse with dawns lighting i sigh .. or something to keep the beat .. i enjoyed reading your poem "With the Dawn" .. i couldn't remember what an aubade is so had to look it up .. thank you for that! your song is gentle, romantic to beat hell and full of images, music, textures and of course ... love!

This has a longing and a sweetness to it. Loving someone, and missing someone, all at once.

I think your poem reflects why we often say we want to follow our dreams, even when they fly away with the rising sun... float into the dawn ... nicely done Julie and I will wave when I see you fly by... ~~redzone
