Once Upon A Dream Poem by Danny Speicher

Once upon a sunset, red
I took your heart in hand
And on the whitened beach we stood
Upon the pale night sand
And we conversed of days gone by
Of events, together, we'd seen
Your smile, bright, under the stars
As, in my arms, you leaned
Our hearts, united, there under the moon
As we held each other close
And we whispered sweet forevers, too
Vows that no one knows
All of this we shared that night
But, things aren't always as they seem
For life was not an element there
Alas, it was all once upon a dream
