My Dream

I'll tell you my dream come true. For all of us.

 

 

   I'll tell you my dream.  I want to be in love again. For that love to be my last. I wish to run home to her waiting arms every night make love to her till I can't breath.  Forsaking for her all others feel her sweat pour over me, like a waterfall.  To have the rains wash away my sins baptizing me in tears of joy.  Fall asleep to the beat of her heart, all the while her whispers caress my ears with "I love you". Play on the beach sharing our deepest fears and grandest joys. Wake not knowing where I end, nor where she begins. Drink of her love till I drown. Look at the moon each night I'm away, know she’s doing the same. Close my eyes, feel her heart touch my soul, and know she has shared with me something precious.  Walk hand in hand through the park at 85 stare into each others eyes not seeing the years gone by, but the priceless love within. I want to die in her loving embrace from a life well spent. All the while the lofting sounds of laughter, pour through my window, as grandchildren play hide and seek, in the fallen leaves of changing colors. To the sound of the lonesome whistle down the river the steamers would roll. I dream my last words to be “I love you". The last sounds I hear to be the new life crying down the hall belying echoes of the child that will take my place. A loving tear from my beloved wife and son, I'd pass from this world with a smile.

Author's Note

It was this story that found my wife for me. For all who ever dared to dream of the great love in life. I thought of this dream and carried it with me all my life. I intend to live it and take it with me to the end. My great great grandfather immigrated to the United States years ago from Ireland. And though I never had the pleasure of knowing him. Be it enough for him to know I am thankful and happy. To him I say "thank you for my life". His spirit lives within my heart!

Seems to me you have written a love poem for all of us.
I think this is what we all wish for.
Such beautiful sentiments and love.

and you will brother you will...glutton! ;-) but then why not. Considering all the people in the world who have no love, or broken love, lost love, false love, fake love, pretended love, forced "love"... i could go on but no need. Perhaps your good fortune in love and your profound ability to love are keeping the balance of the whole universe Tate. Maybe you aren't loving just for yourself buddy...;-0 oooh now THAT is a thought

"I would leave her notes each morning on the mirror. Think kind thoughts of her all day. "
I like this poem. We must remember the things that brought two lives together. When we don't appreciate the small and simple things. Many things can be forgotten. A excellent poem. I better be nice to my poor wife.
