From Dreams to Waking...


from the ABC set Thoughts and Whispers.

In the vale of saved up kisses
‘Neath the tree of falling stars
Where the whispering voices linger
Deep amidst the nears and fars

While the snowdrops sing of winter
And the sunflowers kiss the sky
Leaves will stay and roots will wander
Rivers walk and breezes sigh

There among the daises dancing
By the brook of tumbling dreams
You will find me gently sleeping
In the minds unfurling streams

Sit with me awhile in slumber
Breath the rainbow scented air
Fields of songs will lift me shortly
From the quietus solitaire

With a silent word of waking
With a hand of warmth and care
Lead me from imaginations
To a world we both can share

There where skies are blue and brilliant
With the earth beneath our feet
Side by side in all that greets us
Let us walk this life so sweet

All too soon this world will crumble
So let’s see what life may bring
We have many roads to travel
And so many songs to sing

Write with me our timeless story
Filled with all our hopes and fears
This is ours, our past, our future
Ours til time runs out of years
