the night caresses
her with gentle breezes
as she sways through time
in her dance of dreams
a soft whisper
a silken secret
a scented sigh
hang in middle air…
she breathes deeply of this
sensuous atmosphere
knowing that Life’s
most precious moments
are laden with intent
unspoken promises
unwritten poems
forgotten
forsaken
inhaling inspiration
exhaling adoration
the fires of Love
burn in her veins
she awakens reborn
within the depths of reverie
knowing all too soon
the sun will rise
and her visions
will acquiesce
to dawn
Author notes
my Soul is is an acquiescent dream of my being.

Sweet! I'm liking the ideas here, especially the title.
Wouldn't you say that all dreams are acquiescent?
Your poem also hits on 'the actions we've never taken,' though it would be amazing if we could go back in time and alter our memories.
Love it, thanks for entering and good luck! -
The serenity written here is captivating. Just when all seems chaotic, I read a poem that soothes the soul. This is a beauteous work poet. I wish you well in the contest. I love your author's note as well.
Much Love Always ♥

Wonderful!
The imagery in this piece is intense, sensuous, and vivid I could could readily see, hear, and smell the scene of perfumed night air and light breezes. An absolutely stunning poem that captures the essence of soul perfectly.

My first impression is of elusive night visions that disappear with the dawning of light. Dark can be very comforting. A good poem. Thanks

This is really great work. The writing has a very gentle flow to it. It almost put me in a dreamlike state while reading it. Very well written.

Overall, a good read. You could tweak this more, e.g. take out some words. Examples
S3L1 'deeply she breathes'
S3L3 'knowing life's'
Compliments though, I enjoyed reading this and your words brought me along -
love the last stanza especially

Hmmm

Poetess as far I know
from all the poems I have ever read
I could not imagine anyone able to describe their soul as you are able
it comes through brilliantly in all of your writes
it comes from so deep and always with such passion
as far as I am concerned
not quite a concept
this is soul
God bless you my friend...
