CASTLE OF DREAMS

****************

 

We built our castle of dreams with bricks of love

A sacred shrine for night time trysts…..

A rainbow drawbridge over a moat
Of crystal pools shimmering amethyst starlight ~

We danced into our cocooned world
Protected in each others arms ~
 
Enclosed safely in dreams
Two lovers weaving gold and
Silver threads of forevermore ~

Beautiful imagery and wonderful wordcraft.

Lovely images and metaphors:

'Enclosed safely in dreams
Two lovers weaving gold and
Silver threads of forevermore ~'

What a fine way to 'weave' in the magic word and how much better 'Silver threads of forevermore' sounds than 'They all lived happily ever after'.

Now that was a fairytale that dreams are made of. Good, no Great poem!

I came back a second time to let you know the section that warmed my heart


We built our castle of dreams with bricks of love

A sacred shrine for night time trysts�..


Our homes are our castles and we build them with love or decorate them with love. This is our safe haven. Our Castle of dreams

I loved this all the way around! Your imagery beautiful as you brought this before us so delicately. It has a calming sense to it that true love is still possible if just searched for.

I am so sorry I am just finding the time to visit you here. I guess I STILL live my life on the fly.

Nice to find this poetry home. I will look forward to our visits.

Blessings,
Lesa

I really liked this piece. It was so fantastical (if that's a word). It kept me longing for the story to continue even though they lived happily ever after. I wanted to relax, kick my shoes off, and have a cup of tea in that kind of happiness. Your poem and Eb's were read many times as I tried to decide on a winner. In the end Sal's caught my fancy just a bit more but yours is still a winner. Thanks for playing along.
