I dream of you old friend

Gracefully you dance through my mind
Skipping in a meadow of thoughts and weaving crowns from flowers of sadness
You saunter through forests of memories
And wade into pools of wonder
Your ghost haunts my every thought
Pushing open creaking doors to the past
And unlatch windows of future possibilities 
Running your soft finger tips across the dusty shelves of my mind
You whisper hope into my deepest thoughts
Your eyes capture starry night skies
And shine brightly through my darkest hours
Your hollow face echos in my memories
But your gleaming smile blows it away
