Open Windows

Love

open the window of my soul

and lift the cloud of lace curtains

colorless in the mist of this rainy night

 

Look past the wishing well of tender memories

still echoing with each heartbeat

(filled with longing for you)

 

So I may reach out

and hold the hands of time

 

Remembering…

 

You

who taught me

with beauty and grace

 

“When your dreams like stars fall like rain from the sky,

dance in the rain

and tomorrow will bring sunshine and sweet daisies

if you listen to your heart”

 

Love changes everything….even from a distance

 

Yes my angel,

the window is open

"So I may reach out

and hold the hands of time


Remembering…


You

who taught me

with beauty and grace."

These lines added so much to the loveliness of this poem.
I would however make a suggestion.
In the lines that follow, I had a little confusion reading it.
I had to read it two or three times to make sense of it.
I would add a comma to sort out the confusion.

So it would read,

“When your dreams like stars,

fall like rain from the sky,

dance in the rain

and tomorrow will bring sunshine and sweet daisies

if you listen to your heart."

Overall, it was a lovely poem and I did enjoy reading.

I guess you've heard the saying. " If you love something let them go, if they come back they are yours, if they don't they never where."
An open window. The metaphores.
Such feeling and passion.
Sometimes wonder if it's the images you use that give inspiration or the poetry that searches for the image.
Really superb piece, again.
My dear friend this is an inspired piece. I've added it to my (short) library collection.

Thank you for your kind words, my dear friend. I appreciate you. As far as the images I select - I select them to go with the poem. Rarely do I write to fit an image. I enjoy art and photography and find looking for the perfect image almost as fun as writing the poetry. :) Julie

You've obviously got a good eye.

dear Julie.. to reach out and touch the
hands of time... when dreams like stars
