In the Mist

~ a romantic scribble ~

      

 

In the Mist….

 

He breathes in the cool night air

a vision as light as the mist

                                sweeping my window

 

Haunting memories etched upon my heart

 

unforgettable…yes…

for I’ve felt the tenderness of his touch, his lips

soft,

                           silky,

                                        wet

                 as the night sheds her dew

                          yet is still

as I search for words as lovely as he

 

He is all things beautiful…perhaps not to another’s eye

but to me…

 

He is the whisper in the silence of a dream

weaving the moonlight

                stirring the stars

                                sparkling silver wishes

                                             falling

                  as soft as a summer rain

 

            Leaving me a bit misty eyed

as he flows through my fingers

                impossible to capture

                      except in the mist

 sweeping my window

' He is the whisper in the silence of a dream .. .. .. '

Part glory, part tragedy and both... all. wrapped with tenderness, longing and.. a maybe good bye. The end of your poem is more than most such poems, you're speaking aloud, not from paper or screen.. i feel you're hiding behind every word. This comes across as fact, not.. make believe.. is beautiful.

The poignancy of this write hit me hard, Julie. "He is the whisper in the silence of a dream" Sometimes no one can compare to the one who is no longer here.....and as the years go on, the memories seem even sweeter. Gorgeous sentiment in this one. Lydi**

As is your habit, you mix the sweet elixir of dreaminess, desire, beauty, love, sensuality and softening imagery, imbue it with your own special magic and present it as a gift to us all. I believe that most of us on WC have a sort of our own styles; yours is actually a bit similar, but not THE SAME, as Kelly Scheppers. When I click on one of either of your writes, I settle myself in the soft pillows of contentment and let the movie play. And I always stand and cheer at the end. Top shelf, young lady! take care...dan

There is a stunning, haunting beauty in your words... mists on the windows... mists of the mind... and this one you love that is so like a dream... mingled in your blood forever. So wondrous!

Your beautiful words are as light as the mist covering your window. The writing stands on it's own, romantic, and full of tenderness and the image a perfect complement to it. A wonderful way to start off the weekend. Thank you for this lovely write.
