Dream Lover
Across the time
Across the miles
He calls to me
My heart turns
Yearning to run through years
That part
Like autumn grass
Peering into the sunrise of yesterdays
Longing for his
face
In my dreams he paces
Eager in the wildwood garden
On the path I cannot find
Searching through moonlit nights
I falter
Always searching
Until dawn turns his face to daily cares
If I close my eyes I see him
Sharp as lions’ teeth
Bronzed face lit with smiles of distant days
Does he see me
Across the stormy seas
My arms open in surrender
Does he squint into the sunrise
When the mighty wind I send him
Fills his sails
Does he
Feel my breezy gaze
From sweaty brow to booted foot
Lift his hair in wild abandon
Steer his ship
westward
Slicing through the fog between us?
In the stormy nights
I hear him calling
Thunder passion
Beating with my heart
He will find the way
Forever
We will meet
Again
in Dreams
