In A Dream Poem by Barry Middleton

the satin dress you wore
I never saw before

something was going on
beneath the trees of home

a wedding party there
the moonlight in your hair

the breeze had lifted me
down near the old oak tree

the leaves were falling down
with music all around

memories of long ago
put on a midnight show

and then we kissed again
upon that dying wind

but dreams are only dreams
or so it often seems

the somber afterglow
of love I used to know
