Within A Dream Poem by Linda Ori

Within A Dream

Rating: 5.0


Last night I slept within a dream
And you were by my side -
Your arms embraced me tenderly
With love you could not hide;
I felt your warmth envelope me
With every tender kiss,
In all my life I never knew
A love as sweet as this;

You whispered sweet endearments
As you gently stroked my hair -
Though I was only dreaming
I could feel you everywhere;
Like pure intoxication
From a fine exotic wine,
Your warmth flowed all around me
As our hearts became entwined;

I slept within a dream last night
My soul you came to take -
Now captured by your magic spell.............
I hope I never wake!

Oh Linda, this is so beautiful. 'I slept within a dream' is a magical line and your poem is lyrical and romantic and could have been written by a very young woman. I guess you have touched your inner child. Superb piece. love, Allie xxxxx

So beautiful, romantic yet no puerile mush. 'I slept within a dream' is a wonderful thought, written with all the experience and passion of a very full life. Well worth a 10. Appreciated it to the very depth of my being. Would love to have you read some of mine. Adeline
