My Dream

I'll tell you my dream come true. For all of us.

 

 

   I'll tell you my dream.  I want to be in love again. For that love to be my last. I wish to run home to her waiting arms every night make love to her till I can't breath.  Forsaking for her all others feel her sweat pour over me, like a waterfall.  To have the rains wash away my sins baptizing me in tears of joy.  Fall asleep to the beat of her heart, all the while her whispers caress my ears with "I love you". Play on the beach sharing our deepest fears and grandest joys. Wake not knowing where I end, nor where she begins. Drink of her love till I drown. Look at the moon each night I'm away, know she’s doing the same. Close my eyes, feel her heart touch my soul, and know she has shared with me something precious.  Walk hand in hand through the park at 85 stare into each others eyes not seeing the years gone by, but the priceless love within. I want to die in her loving embrace from a life well spent. All the while the lofting sounds of laughter, pour through my window, as grandchildren play hide and seek, in the fallen leaves of changing colors. To the sound of the lonesome whistle down the river the steamers would roll. I dream my last words to be “I love you". The last sounds I hear to be the new life crying down the hall belying echoes of the child that will take my place. A loving tear from my beloved wife and son, I'd pass from this world with a smile.

Author's Note

It was this story that found my wife for me. For all who ever dared to dream of the great love in life. I thought of this dream and carried it with me all my life. I intend to live it and take it with me to the end. My great great grandfather immigrated to the United States years ago from Ireland. And though I never had the pleasure of knowing him. Be it enough for him to know I am thankful and happy. To him I say "thank you for my life". His spirit lives within my heart!

Blessed Be! A beautiful tribute - both! Wonderful indeed - very uplifting - may it be so!

[Kat Collins]

So beautiful and touching - a love that we all long for at our deepest being. I am jealous and in awe of your dream and reality. It is not many who get to experience the one and the same. Sometimes all it takes is for us to open our eyes to what is around us and embrace it with open arms. You did and glory found you.

omg i simply love this ... this simplicity of wanting a life with her while having the complicity of love ... i love it

[Thomas Fitzgerald]

Tate you darling man, you always have a way to speak to a reader and tear open emotions that may have been locked or forgotten in recent memory. I feel the almost palpable unrestraint of masterful lust and love that few people ever get blessed with. A most talented read, well done.

great piece of prose here tate,
i think most folk on this earth want those things,
nobody wishes to grow old alone,
those who age side by side never notice the lines of time,
i'm glad this found your wife for you!
also the choice of delores keane for the track is great!
