~But a Dreamy Whisper...

  

     i had a lovely dream

                          or was it a dream?

            feelings still linger like hot fiery ice

    i am certain you touched my face

            caressed my heart,

      held my hand

    thought i caught a glimpse of you

                 out of the corner of my eye

    chalked it up to wishful thinking

                                and lunatic ravings,

      the next moment,

 
​              the gentlest breeze,

      a fragrance remembered so well,

                 a discernible whisper in my ear,

             and I noticed there, tucked at the nape of my neck

                            wildflowers in my hair

" the gentlest breeze,

I'm so glad you are dreaming some nice dreams for a change among all life's troubles and aches. We need them to refresh our souls and give us hope...Bravo...:)

Dreamy, misty whispers in the night. Love these kinds of encounters or were they visions? Huh. Better ask my husband what happened last night. This made me think of those sleepy romps in the middle of the night, sometimes those are the best connections of all. Thank you for triggering these lovely memories, Frieda! Angi~

[Frieda P]

Umm, your romps sound better than my dreams Angi! Thank you muchly
Now, let me talk to hubby... ;-)

I love the dreams that feel real. They stay with you and when you wake up you think was that a dream? I had a dream like that, the other night. It'll come true a week today ;-) Woo.

Amazing write.

[Frieda P]

Thanks Mark.

Aren't those dreams grand! The ones that feel so real that you wake just knowing it was more than a dream - they feel like a connection through distance, magic. A beautiful poem!

[Frieda P]

I love when the good ones stay with you, thanks so much Sera!

Oh gah, this is great. It's almost palpable. Very beautiful, Frieda P. The beauty of a dream, aint it? Everything is almost possible.

Love it Frieda, that bit about "hot fiery ice" seemed so perfect. I was scratching my head to imagine what it might be, and realized you had created the feeling inside of me that you were describing of something that seems to be, but probably isn't anything but " wishful thinking and lunatic ravings,". Great one.

[Frieda P]

Thanks Astro, so jazzed you took it there.

[Astro]

It was your words cher ami.

[Frieda P]

Are you trying to make me swoon again with your French?

[Astro]

Moi? ;)

[Frieda P]

I thought maybe you were from N'awlins, you're from French speaking part of Canada?

A beautiful poem full of sentiment and lingering reminders. There are always moments that feel so real, make you wonder, "am I dreaming? Could this be more than a memory?" Really like this one Frieda. Thanks for sharing. It brought a warm smile to my face. In darkness there is always light, you just have to know where to look.

[Frieda P]

A warm smile is more than I could ask for, thanks so much Kristin.

[Emily B]

sometimes . . .

[Frieda P]

Great, when it happens that way, thanks Emily...

[lee von cleef]

[Frieda P]
