Reverie's Echo

Thanks noodlebumble for the inspiring graphic ♥

A thought captivated me,

upon reverie's echoes

 like a lovely dream

feelings that linger'd long after

the wind touched my face 

in a tender embrace of yesterday

a discernible hush,

 of a whisper in my ear

  caressed my heart

   as it took flight,

fragrance of wildflowers

 in my hair

   scent of silk and satin sheet nights

of when our shores crash'd,

musky reminiscent

of fond

remembrances

you said goodbye ~

I learn'd to fly, after a time

 when

 you were still mine

Beautiful places you took me with in your words.
"fragrance of wildflowers
in my hair

The above lines were my favorite. Sweet and kind places and memories are always with us. Thank you for sharing the amazing poetry.

Thanks so much Coyote, glad you enjoy'd my wildflower musings.

Spectacular portrayal of a relationship in which only half of the participants took to the air in the pirouette of love, and the other, bored of watching you soar yet too afraid to take flight themself, left while you were in the air. The grace of flying enraptured you, however, and you decided to caress the memories and keep to the air where the emotions floated around freely, although unrequited.

Living in the grace of where there should be none; lovely, to say so myself.

Wow!!!! I have tried writing a review and each time I reach halfway I delete coz honestly, I dont know how to review such a wonderful piece of poetry, its way out of its league, among the best I have read. #let me submit review before I delete# good one my sweet friend

[Frieda P]

Just knowing you enjoyed makes my spirit soar Cassie, thanks so much my dear friend! Thanks so much for this glowing review.

[Lyn Anderson]

This is gorgeous and romantic and lovely.

[Frieda P]

Thanks so much, was wondering if learned was right or it should have been learnt....guess it's all a go....grazie.

[Lyn Anderson]

learned is correct, si, and generally, you can also use learnt. I prefer the former myself.

[Frieda P]

Sometimes those irregular past participles trick me up...I think learnt is more commonly used in the UK also...

[Rita L. Sev]

A poem that touches every sense so gently, like a reverie... or an echo. Truly a gorgeously crafted piece, Frieda!

[Frieda P]

Thanks for your lovely words Rita.

[Avinash]

Letting go of love at times liberates your soul. This seems to be one of those.

[Frieda P]

Yes, and sometimes it just whacks you over the head, just saying, thanks Avinash ;-)
