Slumber

I awake from dreams of you
as the night does ebb away,
to a morn that's bathed in dew,
to flowers that greet the day.
I awake from dreams of you
where there's spirit deep inside,
where newborns make their debut
and make those near starry eyed.

Lift me from this slumber please,
for in love I will not fail.
I will triumph as you ease
your love on lips and eyelids pale.
My cheeks do blush from your kiss,
as your lips do press on mine.
Savouring moments like this,
tastes of honey and sweet wine.

Life in me is what you give
and who knows how it will grow?
But I love because I live,
tis suffice for me to know.
Do not ask the if and why,
for you give all that I need.
Know I'll love you till I die,
till the heart will sweetly bleed.

    a good smiling piece of poetry penned here, uplifting, pleasant, rich in imagery, all good for the senses.

  • Outstanding

    This is a lovely, sensitive poem that speaks of love -the kind that grows with time. The rhyme is subtle and the imagery well-chosen and thoughtful. There was a lot I liked in this poem but the second stanza was my favourite. Your writing goes from strength to strength.

    this is beautiful -- especially in the last stanza:

    "Do not ask the if and why,
    for you give all that I need."

    i love that, some people just 'are' what the other person needs..

    Indeed night is like the tides...ebbing and flooding. This sets out a very nice rhythm for your poem. I also like the subtle rhymes used. A work of love and love's reflections savoured.
