Musings of a Wordsmith - 1. A Pipe-Dream

I dream
of small things,
of everyday;
of a coffee in the morning
as the sun arises;
of the fresh air of beginnings,
of my skin longing
to feel alive.


I dream
of the calmness
brought by rough seas;
of the tireless rumor
of crashing waves;
of my skin drying
with the wet salt of water.


I dream
of the shelter offered
by majestic woods;
of the sweet lulling whisper
of leaves in the Fall;
of my skin cooling,
goosebumps in the greenery.


I dream
of longing to be back
whenever I am not at home;
of the warmth at the hearth
on wintery days;
of my skin sweating
in the heat of a memory.


I dream
of big,
of small,
of tangible,
of immaterial,
of you.


And I wake up.

And here it goes, after years reading, I dare to share some of my writings. Let me know what you think.

A beautiful poem. It takes us on many walks and set us down again next to what is as vital in life as being restless. Thank you for starting to share your dreams with us

It was a real pleasure to read and experience this poem, JACC. All of these things you dream can be found in the arms of a lover. I found this intimate in a most beautiful way. Thank you. G.

Thanks to you for reading, @Headstall, and for the feedback, it feels nice to know I'm not posting into the endless void of the internet...

I enjoyed this poem. Its images appeal to my senses in the smell of coffee, the  taste and feel of the sea wind, and the silences of the woods. Thank you for these moments to remember.
