You lead me down paths filled
Through slumber dreams of trees
We run wild at dusk
Weaving in and out
Desire left hidden
In blankets of blossoms.
I felt your hand caress my face
And I turned to find
Flowered branches brushing through
Silken strands of flowing hair.
Emptiness of a summer night
Calling out to the hollow echo
That returns to me unanswered
And I knew you were here
As your scent filled the air
Apple and lavender mixed
On the whisper of the wind
That left me alone
Yet comforted by the thought
Of your touch.
Thoughts on a dream I had….
Great poem and the picture reminds me of a good memory. Thanks for writing this and for posting the picture.

Not sure what julianes is but I hope it’s good. Had a few cocktails myself tonight as it hit 91 on my way home…basked on a floatie device in the pond and just embraced the bliss of warmth…life is truly good and thank you for enjoying the ride with me my friend😊☀️

Julienas is a red wine. Glad you’re at 91. Here it is barely coming back to summer temperatures. At least it’s not raining. 🙂
