“In whispers lost I chase my dreams”

Love or dream

“In whispers lost I chase my dreams”

 

In whispers lost I chase my dreams

Yearning for your soft and tender beams

Rehearsing lovely words and phrase

Waiting, love poised to settle in place

And hear your YES, like a stream’s flow it gleams

 

I rehearse and prepare in advance

How we shall tread down the golden roads of France

Together, with your hands locked with mine

In whispers lost I chase these dreams

 

Love letters transformed into structured rhymes

A poet was born with time

Love expressed with painted words and song

Hoping you will be mine all day long

In love’s craft, my hands grow stronger in time

in whispers lost, I chase my dreams

Feel free, my first Rondeau

I like your willingness to venture into new forms.
I like the rhyme scheme here, and the near rhyme as well.
Keep chasing the dreams...one day they will be found.

This poem explores the themes of love, longing, and the pursuit of dreams.
The references to “whispers,” “soft and tender beams,” and “golden roads of France” evoke a sense of intimacy, beauty, and adventure associated with love.
Very beautifully written about a beloved maybe

Also a beautiful personification used ...Love is depicted as an active force (“Love expressed with painted words and song”), giving it a dynamic quality.

Thanks for sharing such a beautiful piece.
