A Dream

 

A Museum

--Cool and dim

----A shaft of light

Hair of amber

--Wispy in the light

----Behind me?

A painting

--Viewed with longing:

----A man, a woman.

I move on;

--a shadow follows.

Flowers in a vase

--Image on the wall.

Is she following me?

--Yes!

----Oh, heart be still.

A ship

--Coming or going?

----The painting does not say.

Tall window

--View of life

----Trees in the sun.

I wander out;

--A touch on my hand:

----A question.

Her hand in mine

--Leading, following.

Does she love me?

--I knoweth not;

----A question unanswered.

A bench in the sun

--Sweet whisperings

----Soft kisses.

I think

--Maybe ?

----An answer.

BUT

--It is but a dream;

----The trueth for me

------Is in my heart:

For her?

--Answer unknown,

----Maybe so

------But maybe not.

A question

--I am afraid to ask;----

--An answer I want to know.
