dream

last night i had a most wonderful dream
you and i lay in a tree house
under a warm sun
above a creek

a friend had brought us together

just past noon
i glanced at my watch saying
"you don't have time to go"
and you replied
"i don't have time to stay"

in your company
so lovely
i didn't want to wake

i tell myself

i tell myself stories
about love
and pain
passion
and loss

but in the end
they are but stories
i tell
myself

your voice sweetens my day...

an open window
on a warm spring day
inviting
the sweet scent of wild mint
to breath through
above
a soft couch
on a lazy afternoon
beckons me to nap
reminds it's ok to rest
knowing
a secret
on lips lightly smiling
tempting me near
to listen close
and
at times a brick wall
courting me
to bang my head

an open hand
outstretched

you are all these to me
your voice sweetens my day...
