Dream child float away
lilting through the night
on your summer bed
softly in shadows sweet
the mystery of you is true
my heart comes unglued
at your golden sight
rocking you
in tender contemplation
true in every movement
how could you be wrong
and that proves it too
what you learn is only
just a wrapping
of blankets leaving you pure
even in your darkest deed
as you grow to be less
and I cast my eyes
into your heart sweetly
listening to you sleeping
my eyes grow tired too
but stay open just to know
another moment of this bliss
hoping you might stay
just a day longer
before the time must come
as you walk your own path
blossoming from this root
you have come full circle
I wonder, wonder, wonder
but answers fall away
I am content to know nothing
and only be here
in this true moment
alone by myself with you
my precious dream that breaths
our two worlds kissing edges
like distant galaxies
of far away times

I love Cradle Dream! It's one of the most loving words directed towards another that come rushing back in to the one loving that I've ever read. Beautiful! I struggle with over-protecting my children and wanting to keep them forever so I read your words through that filter... and
ReplyDeleteyour words speak to me in that sense.
I'm so happy it touched you that way Veronica.
ReplyDeleteIt was surprisingly inspired by this quite:
"The most beautiful experience we can have is the mysterious - the fundamental emotion which stands at the cradle of true art and true science."
~ Albert Einstein
Yet the result has little to do with the quote other than being born out of that inspiration. I never know where inspiration will lead:
Haha! No, the result had little to do with the inspirational quote! It went somewhere wonderful too though! And I agree you never know where the inspiration will lead when you allow it to take you by the hand... or by the heart :)
