    William

     You're in my dreams,
    and your tender smile melts my heart.

    I think of us
    in London,
    where the sky is gray,
    and my clothes are of lace,
    and yours of cotton.
    I grabbed your hand,
    under the light of a lamp post.

    We dreamt of a life under the stars
    spread out on the soft grass,
    under a patched blanket.
    You took my heart in your hands
    and held on
    as I began to fade into
    this dream...

    William,
    I'm going back to bed.

    I have been reading your poetry. I especially like this one because it reminds me of those marvelous eras the thirties and forties. Makes one wonder what will happen next.

    I was hoping for that kind of effect. I wanted something simple that left room for the imagination. :)

    Thank you so much. :)

    A poem begins as a lump in the throat, a sense of wrong, a homesickness, a lovesickness. It finds the thought and the thought finds the words.

    Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
