Somewhere Not Here.
When the dawn air-brushes darkness away
and the music of silence
recedes,
I am still in the clutches of dreaming
and as quiet takes wing
I stir in my bed, then send a good morning
to somewhere not here.
As first noise vapourises your shadowy
form, though I conspire
with night to keep dreaming you
clearly,
I have to arise, wipe you from my still
sleepy eyes
and pull back the dense curtains
of realization
to face here not there.
Then I find myself counting the hours
when I can begin hearing again
the music
of silence darkness will bring
so I can resume
my dream-communion with our
time, somewhere not here.

Dreamy as a dream and yes the curatins of relaity are dense ...too thick and can only be penetrated with dedication and hard work and of course through continuing to dream till the stars again invite you to their kingdom .....this one flies on the wings of the dreams that are the skin of the imagination ....and the essence of hope ...

yearning for someone not there is hard but dreams bring back the joy
yearning for someone not there is hard but dreams bring back the joy
in that fabled land twain night and day, where poets and lovers pen their play, nymphs and knights under starry skies, those breathless moments where love applies.
