Dreams

Poems of dreams that feel so real....

Walking in amber fields august beauty, 

I see my true loves home afar off.  

Waving stalks golden crowns cast down, 

she beacons me, I oblige that request.  

My loves' embrace plays in my minds theater, 

surely I should arrive soon to her delicate features, ivory skin.  

Drinking in deep emerald eyes, I delightfully swim, 

silken crimson locks run through my fingers, rose scented, still no closer.  

This journey travelled, this eternity trod, 

I will continue faithful for my love waits. 

I have finally made an end of marathons trek, 

I have stumbled and tripped,

I have finished this course,

The prize is mine.

I go to kiss those sweet lips, 

to awake to a happy dog, 

hungry for breakfast.

So many times there are dreams I wish to return to, they are now fading memories...

You're a young man...they can't be faded far.

The poetry? I'd never insert the word, 'dog'...Let people think what they want. Maybe keep the picture at the end. lol
I was thinking as I began reading, "AHA! Here we go!" Then I saw the word 'dog' before I ever saw the photo.
But it's your work, not mine. It's very touching. Gorgeous dog. I bet there are some great stories there!

[Dave W.]

My profile pic was one I took at work but I usually don't like my pictures because I don't like how I look

[GlendaK]

You look amazing...no dreds or hair hiding the face. You look clean...like all the little boys I adore ;p..sorry.

[Dave W.]

Thankyou for the kind words,

I had one dog I really loved. A boxer named Sassy. The vets now are so money minded, he wanted me to continue to bring her and he wasn't even giving her anything for pain! I was on my last seconds, standing in front of a deserted area of the woods, before I put a bullet straight into her brain which would have been the most humane thing to do -she was screaming constantly for the pain -she was wrapped in arthritis...Then a school bus of little children came by and they were all looking..
