Faraway Dream Poem by Peter S. Quinn

A dream of brightness to faraway deep
Summer set moods once so in its glowing
Flowers in the bouquets of memoirs keep
Now in the tides of withering going
Lovers in their thoughts quietly on there playing
Moods of yesterdays in alone afar
For nothing in colored streams for long's staying
It fades all away like a winter star

Dusk of time is profound in its kisses
Rushing the gardens with rustic leaves
And all in the heart is like soft wishes
Opening thoughts to a dream one grieves

Quiet in its stillness a dream's like a glow
A beat of falling footsteps that must go
