There was a morning last month, I sensed the strong presence of my soul mate. I felt the need to write an emotional treatise of sorts, what morphed into a free verse. I call it "A day of Dreams". It became my own "balm in Gilead".
A DREAM OF DAYS M. Royer 02/17/2016 (Reunion)
SOMEWHERE, OUT BEYOND THE COUNTY LINE SHE WAITS
IN A STAND OF DISTANT TREES
DIAPHANOUS AND BECKONING WITH A WAVE OF WIND ON
AN OUTSWEPT HAND…
SHE HAS COME FROM A FOREIGN REALM TO DRAW ME NEAR ON
A SPEAR OF LIGHT THROUGH THE DAZZLING ARRAY OF ETERNAL MILES.
BROKEN LINES AND SHATTERED GLASS ARE LITTERED BEFORE THE DREAMSCAPE
WHILE I LOOSEN ALL SECRETS ONCE TO BE KEPT AT LENGTH
I HAVE NO CONVEYANCE BUT BROKEN BOOTS, THE DISTANCE STAGGERS BEYOND REACH
IN APPEARANCE I AM ETERNALLY WAITING AT THE GATE AS THE HORIZON IS FARTHER THAN
PERCEPTION ALLOWS.
WILL YOU BRING ME IN ON A BEAM OF YOUR PURE
ENERGY?
CATCH MY SOUL LIKE A LONG THROWN BASEBALL WITH NO WHERE TO GO BUT
WHERE YOU WILL IT.
SO THAT AS SLUMBER FADES QUIETLY AWAY, I AM CAPTURED, REBORN INTO CRYSTALS OF LIGHT
BURNING BRIGHTLY OVER UNCERTAIN GROUND, WHILE A NEW MORNING RISES AND NEW
BREATH IS DRAWN. AND THEN…….ONLY THEN CAN I FEEL YOUR TOUCH. HEAR YOUR VOICE LIKE A
BROOK SLOWLY TRICKLING THROUGH THE STARS AND TAKE MY PLACE WITH YOU IN THE HEAVENS,
THEN I WILL BE REUNITED WITH MY BRIDE ONCE AGAIN!

……absolutely stunningly beautiful……..
I time travelled into that verse and imagined that I too can and will be embraced by my own husbands light…...
thank you Mel, thank you for sharing such a message of hope. I need all the props I can get right now as I am revisiting very shaky ground…..
