Daydream in Blue

Frost tipped lashes sweep droplets of chilled

amethyst dreams down the 

gossamer divide between

life in waking dream.

As dawn creeps past the jealous clutches of reverie

amiable sunbeams dancing 'cross the face of

silvery pond and water lily,

her place is called Felicity.

Where love glows from starlit sky

to verdant green

And life will sing from robin's egg

to fairy's wing.

For him, she smiles fragrantly at the shady afternoon

Her silky buds extended in pinkish bloom

And ever a breeze would coolly sweep by

His willow's leaves kissed at her stalk and she'd sigh.

This is so agonizingly beautiful. There is a wistful desperate longing in these words that draws me into this beautiful daydream. It takes me back to a time when a beautiful poetess and I shared many days when moments as these you have so eloquently penned were not only real, but commonplace. So lovely. Well done.

I like your language! The last stanza is a killer. I'll be back for sure. I'll read educated poets anytime. Hope you'll look at mine.

So glad you enjoyed my writing. I'm both humbled and terribly flattered. ;) Will definitely swing by your corner and leave you my thoughts.

Thank you. There are many more for your selection---all of them not stellar, I fear.

Such a colorful world... your remarks are the atmosphere of living beings confounded with the involuntary act of semiconscious time travel in a conscious universe! ie to be able to see and feel it all and not know why it is all ending so quickly.

You ended this so Beautifully...
"For him, she smiles fragrantly at the shady afternoon
Her silky buds extended in pinkish bloom
And ever a breeze would coolly sweep by
His willow's leaves kissed at her stalk and she'd sigh."

as if to say eventually this will all go away.
It took me quite some time to decipher all the meanings ( >to me) and that is pleasing to me... thank you for letting me share in this living dream. :)

You are most welcome, and thank you for walking through my living dream, so long as it amused you, I am contented. :)

As a whole you HAVE to take this distance of place/poem like you would try a lovely dream. A very real and slippery dream as the words slow and grow the painful vision and division down over your wanting connection. I love this. Especially "As dawn creeps past the jealous clutches of reverie" because that is where I begin so I identify. "Her silky buds extended in pinkish bloom"...Wanna talk painters. Ms. O" K..lol. Very cherry expression and reverie.

You know, I was in a much saner place/peace of mind when I wrote that. Thank you for the review... and since I moved to a new building on campus, I haven't painted a thing! I don't have enough room in here. D: I'd have to pack all the painting supplies up and take them outside to paint, and it's WAY too hot for that in my little part of the world.

[Perdition]

Then paint with words as you have...but no excuses : ) And as far as the saner peace..it shows.

What a lovely picture you paint. Night ending, daylight coming...bud to flower...

[Kristallo]

Glad you liked it. Thanks. :)

The first stanza feels like a purple haze of frozen tears, just so lovely. Stanza too make me want to be where you are in this place called Felicity where dreams dance with the sunbeams, Three is my fav as I have a thing for baby blue of Robin's eggs and fairy wings, and it ends with a fragrant sigh beneath my hearts willow, just such beautiful penmanship! Came back for this one my first review didn't give it proper justice :)

There is an intoxicating magic here in this dreamish place... the world, life itself, awakening in silver and sunbeams... Those things every heart longs for fulfilled in the deepest way... Breathtakingly bittersweet... If I could put your words in a glass, I would drink them all day to endure any pain.

[Kristallo]

You give the most thought provoking reviews, Craig. Thank you. =)
