Heart Dream
By: JP Leddy
My eyes close moistened with tears
I ache for a vision of you in my dreams
I wanted to see you in my awakeness
But I only see others
In these pressing crowds, I feel alone
So I welcome sleep
I pray the Master Dreamweaver will send me to you
To be intertwined in floating beautifulness
Where things of the heart paint the skies
And bring to blossom the land beneath
Every day, you fill more parts of my heart
I cannot fight it
I will not fight it
I surrender willingly to the journey
Even if it is only in the realm of dreams
The dream settles me always by a beach
Where my vivid thoughts of you swim through my mind
As I sit along the white sands by the Tasi
Master Dreamweaver whispers:
“Your heart now resides on the shores of Knysna”
I hope the morning does not come soon…..

Very lyrical! Has a nice melody to it as I read it…
Thank you, Ms. Weger
Glad to see your work being loved by many…
are you done 18 NEW and returned favors?
sorry for the questions…
simply try to check things out and hope that you have a fun Sunday!
I think so, Jingle..
For what it’s worth: you have my praise too, even though I am an untrained poet myself 🙂 words well up from within us and even if they mean something or nothing to another – the babbling brook they form means so much to us. I can relate to your poem very much… it reminds me of recent heartbreaks.
Suzy,
What you wrote meant the world to me.
JP
ah, I can relate to this.. very much.. the longing for the beloved.. yeah, I’ve had that.. 🙂
good poem..
Thank you, Leonnyes.

Happy Wednesday!
