3:15 am

The middle of the night...the best time of the day.

 

 

3:15 am

 

 

3:15 am…blurred red numbers tell as

I stir, reaching for what I have seen,

grasping for the moments spent in the presence of beauty

as once again you have visited me in a dream…

 

Pure white flowing whispered fabrics and butterfly trails

awash of waterfalls cascading and mountain top zephyrs,

rock face delights collect on horizons of hope

as softness frames your luminescent face

 

My eyes focus in the darkness

as your touch remains real on my skin

I am still while stars sleep in crescent moon hammocks

How can this be, I am alone, yet I was not, for I could see

 

You were searching for me,

barefoot on lush green vistas, daisy paths and buttercup drops

neath cotton candy clouds suspended

above echoes of love songs harmonizing with our heart beats 

 

Night outside my window keeps time in silent motions,

slowly sweeping breezes form rhythmic patterns

and poetry settles upon my body

as I continue to write within my now awakened mind

 

Destiny beckons in fruited winds

as chocolate eyes find luscious views of nature’s majesty

Your skins glows of spring blooms in petal’d bliss

and opal desires in the warmth of the day

 

But I had found you…you had found me…

my desperate wanderings have shown me the prize, illumined the joy

lingering in your smile…your eyes

your touch which stays with me even as I lay alone…still dreaming

 

Sun beamed passions follow you, caress you in

dancing shadows of flowing brown hair

breathing of morning glory skies

and shimmering dragonfly wings

 

At this early hour, with an apricot moon peering through the curtains

and these words which have found me

playing among my thoughts, I now realize

that my every dream is you...you are my poetry
