PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

I held an emerald once in a dream

It did sparkle shine and gleem

It drew my gaze more intent to look

To describe such beauty I could only be miss took

To say what I saw in just one look would take a master poets book

I thought more beauty must lie deep inside

But I could not see past its irredecent shine

In this dream I was a wealthy man

Next I held spun gold in my hand

But I thought not of greed

My thoughts flowed from my soul

I thought what rare refined beauty

for me to behold

As it flowed through my fingers

sunlight danced on its edge

Overwhelmed by such beauty

I soon turned my head

Then my mouth filled with sweetness

subtle and light

like cool sping water

on a warm summer night

Then I felt a soft touch

a caress from my head to my feet

And I could feel inner peace

and a love so complete

I was emotionally filled how could one person feel anymore

Then I had a strange feeling like I dreamed this before

Then still in my slumber I knew that I had

For I once loved a girl till it near drove me mad

With the greenest green eyes and the softest silk skin

I desired so much

I shivered and quivered

was aroused at first touch

With the sweetest sweet kisses

lush golden blonde hair

her love was her beauty

and her beauty was love beyond all compare

Then as I woke from my slumber

leaving my dreams riches and beauty behind

I struggled to remember as they

slipped from my mind

then a smile crossed my lips and my face must have beamed

when I remembered both times when I felt love so complete

Once in a lifetime and once in a dream
