Into A Dream

Into A Dream

Breathless beauty, flying high

Into a dream, into the sky;

The atmosphere.

Laughs and giggles, golden days

The fitting score of hearts ablaze;

In summer time.

Gleaming lakes and branches fine

These effervescent horizon minds;

A bird sings.

Dark and shadowed silhouettes

Evaporating past regrets;

Our old lives.

The looking out, the breathing in

The meeting eyes and touching skin;

A light burns.

Raging, flailing, love-struck figures

Dancing by the moonlit rivers;

There is no night.

Thin and light, so full of life

A distant glow, brighter than bright;

Like marigolds.

Such intellect, so circumspect

A one-day dream, hopes kept in check;

Until a dawn.

Then at the end of harshest winter

The bursting forth of flames from cinders;

Embracing light.

Sweet company in times of trouble

Picking daisies beneath the rubble;

Hear the ravens.

The growing old, the fading din

Decaying minds but gold within;

Then letting go.

And as the curtains fall at last

Gaze out at nature unabashed;

We lived our lives.
