pausing on such thoughts
give me time to dwell and I will bring you
flowers from the farthest reaches
to lands our dreams most surely take us
there are places beyond the imagination
and if you give me time to dwell
I will describe them in fantastic detail
never forego the passion of rediscovery
and life will reward you one hundred fold
this I am sure after taking the time to dwell

Beautiful!
thank you very much
Give me time to dwell on what you tell and I am sure my dreams will be better than counting sheep. This poem takes me to many places and beyond. Lovely.
Thank you for leaving such lovely comments, Denise.
you inspired them, I just couldn’t help myself, so lovely to find something different to say.
This is in keeping with the Hanged Man tarot card being the energy for 2019; I’ve posted it to my Fiery K FB page, thanks for writing and sharing it here!
Thanks for letting me know but purely coincidental. I will have to check this out!
lol no I meant I posted your poem lol
Oh, okay, thank-you!
This makes me think of The Edge of Love and that crafty-sly (and sexy) Dylan Thomas.
I’ll have to revisit that one. Thank-you.
I absolutely love it.
Thank you, Kristine. Hope all is well in your world.
