Of My Winter�s Night Dream (2006)

All quiet on the eastern front

The western front too

Not a sound to be heard

Not even a whisper.

 

As strangers pass in the night

Sleepwalking I wonder

Not even a notice

Nothing to be heard.

 

A word, if only a word

Come it might

Softly spoken

From so far away.

 

Thoughts do count

Memories don’t fade

Smiles like sunshine

Words like wine.

 

Linger as I would

Caught in this netherworld

Shadows of the night

Cast their spells.

 

A throb of the heart.

A gasp for air

Eyes wide open

A dream so vivid.

 

Blinded by the light

A sun so bright

Cold it grows not

Within my soul.

 

A winter’s night dream

Warmed by gentle caresses

On my mind

So complete, so sublime.
