A Dream On Mother's Day Poem by Amy J Richardson

I dreamt of a beautiful woman,
She was clothed in silken white,
And shimmering all around her,
Was a gentle love - filled light.
Her eyes were kind and twinkled blue,
Her hair like golden skies,
Her beauty overwhelmed me,
I could not withdraw my eyes,
She then held out her loving hand,
I was unsure of what to do,
Then I looked into her eyes, and saw,
Her inner beauty shining through.
I stepped a little forward,
And put my hand into her palm,
I felt I had found my inner peace,
I was filled with warmth and calm.
I knew I loved this woman,
And that she loved me the same,
But I didn’t recognise her,
And I didn’t know her name.
She stood in all her light and glory,
With a beauty I couldn’t believe,
Then the light began to fade away,
And the dream began to leave.
I was laid upon my bed once more,
Then I realised that I knew,
Who the beautiful woman was -
I had dreamed of you.
