Dreams

A mind at peace with all below she is beauty such so ever bright Smile to win the hearts that glow a wonder to the sight

Lucy Hamilton Princess of Ireland.

Another life I dream of now

thoughts of others nay-ere to wed

Where love has waited on the bow

shown in beauty of all she said

 

I watched as she descended stairs

and dreamed the world was none but gay

With her my life had lost the cares

where we would dance the night away

 

The witted banter of close friends

then came the music swaying crowds

As dreams of love that never ends

on high the heaven’s streaming clouds

 

From marbled hall and wooded glade

of noble thoughts I was endowed

For love of her my heart had stayed

a life un-wavered and un-bowed

To he whom ever loved so true

we bless the winds of salvation

Red tresses flow in green eyed hue

oh this wonder of creation

Author's Note

Oh who can say what they would do if the winds had only blown them to distant shores. I wrote this of the dreams of another life not lived. I do not believe we are only able to love one person in life. I think there are thousands whom we might fall in love with if the time and place were right. It is the fates that leads us to our destiny. And this is just a thought on how life could be different if the winds had blown the opposite direction.

You, my dear, are a hopeless romantic; and I love it! It seems you like women as well as love them, this is a very desirable trait in the male of the species, and all too rare.
I believe you are correct, actually, I know you are correct, you can love more than one person. (Hopefully, not at the same time. LOL)

[Glen Yumang Manese]

This portrays one to think a bit of the situation...I do agree if the time and place was given...you could be in a different relationship altogether...and indeed where we are now...has given that answer...yet this is if the wind had gone a different course...where would you be and now...thanks for the invitation...

[Tate Morgan]

Who's to say which way is best. Only hindsight knows

[Glen Yumang Manese]

I agree...Tate...

[Leslie Philibert]

nice rhymes, clever art work...good job.

[Tate Morgan]

Thanks les Well we all have to decide this way or that. Thereby leading our lives one way or another.

[shallimarRose]

Fantasy or real this was a romantic poem. The authors note tells of an unsatisfied longing , at least to me.

I know first hand that we can have true love more then once in a lifetime Tate. Preferably not simultaneously, lol

Nice rhyme in this.. I wanted to pause after that last she for some reason.. maybe a comma needed there? xo Rose

Video not working...

[Michael G.]

Life does have many corners for us to turn. Who knows what lies beyond them. Well penned thought, Tate.

[Marie]

You are right--there are others we could love. And perhaps we do in other worlds than this.

A beautiful, dreamy poem. Both whistful and atmospheric. Wondeful word play and phraseology. Loved it man, tuly oved it
