Dreams

A mind at peace with all below she is beauty such so ever bright Smile to win the hearts that glow a wonder to the sight

Lucy Hamilton Princess of Ireland.

Another life I dream of now

thoughts of others nay-ere to wed

Where love has waited on the bow

shown in beauty of all she said

 

I watched as she descended stairs

and dreamed the world was none but gay

With her my life had lost the cares

where we would dance the night away

 

The witted banter of close friends

then came the music swaying crowds

As dreams of love that never ends

on high the heaven’s streaming clouds

 

From marbled hall and wooded glade

of noble thoughts I was endowed

For love of her my heart had stayed

a life un-wavered and un-bowed

To he whom ever loved so true

we bless the winds of salvation

Red tresses flow in green eyed hue

oh this wonder of creation

Author's Note

Oh who can say what they would do if the winds had only blown them to distant shores. I wrote this of the dreams of another life not lived. I do not believe we are only able to love one person in life. I think there are thousands whom we might fall in love with if the time and place were right. It is the fates that leads us to our destiny. And this is just a thought on how life could be different if the winds had blown the opposite direction.

You, my dear, are a hopeless romantic; and I love it! It seems you like women as well as love them, this is a very desirable trait in the male of the species, and all too rare.
I believe you are correct, actually, I know you are correct, you can love more than one person. (Hopefully, not at the same time. LOL)

Friends are friends are friends and who knows what can happen in life, that's what makes it so delicious. Guess - as you suggest, tis where we are at any given moment ..

'As dreams of love that never ends ~ On high the heaven’s streaming clouds ' - - - dreams become sweet mystery, that's what your notes hint at ..

"To he whom ever loved so true
I thank the winds of salvation
For blond tresses and eyes so blue
she this wonder of creation"

The entire poem had a sort of dreamy/beautiful feel to it, something im finding hard to explain :) I like how you've written this, sort of like "what could have been" . The description itself was absolutely brilliant! thanks for sharing

I enjoyed this work hun.

[The Analog Kid]

The theme you aim to pose is clear while that theme itself is elusive. I mean, the road not taken. All we can do is wonder. This is always a good subject for poetry.

[My Fair Lady]

A lovely poem and thought. It is something I have thought about...as nice as the idea of one soul mate is I think it is rather unlikely - maybe there are many soul mates for every person??....
