Dreaming

by

Jean M. Lewis

 

In my dreams we meet you and I

beneath a cloudless deep blue sky,

The meadow flowers here abound

And rich green grass lies all around.

 

This is a perfect, halcyon place

To greet you love - warmly embrace.

We linger here beneath the sun

Our hearts and souls joining as one.

 

For hours we talk, our souls we bare

As everything we gladly share

And we express our deep, true love -

But storm clouds are looming up above.

 

It's getting dark, it's hard to see,

I sense you drift away from me,

The air grows cold, what is my fate?

I awake now - sad and desolate.

HAIKU

by

Jean M. Lewis

 

Winter's white fingers

Frosting branches, trees and fields,

Move silently on.

---o0o---

White winter trees pose

Adorned in lace robes of snow,

Temporary guise.

---o0o---

A soft gentle sound

Carried on the evening breeze,

Whispers ""He is here"".

------o0o------

Haunting melody,

Sad requiem for lost love

Always remembered.

Night

by

Jean M. Lewis

 

Approaching Night gently wraps

Her sequined cloak of glittering stars

Around a weary, troubled Earth.

 

Sleep now and Night will help to heal

The worried mind of anxious men

And respite bring to love rejected.

 

Problems of the day subside

Hidden in Night's protective veil.

Come quickly Night and soothe all pain,

 

Refresh and make Man whole again,

Before the Dawn appears anew

Weeping once more her morning dews.
