I am dreaming poetry again, my love 
 
the first night it happened 
I dreamt three poems in a row 
love poems perhaps
but they fell away forlornly 
while I slowly woke 
 
I drifted into the dawn delicately 
on the first line of the third poem 
"I am a shadow in the garden of David." 
 
the very next night I dreamed again 
found myself on that morning 
floating above the poetry line 
dreaming that you were loving me 
bestirred in blissful innocence 
like Eden just before the Fall.

This piece is called Daybreak by Maxfield Parrish.  I'd include the link but it penalizes my hub, sorry Mr. Parrish.

I love art.  I'm not educated in that field, but I know enough to know what I like.  In some other life, I'd get my degree in art instead of business, eh.  Business - what a crap choice of study for a quasi-socilaist. lolz. 

If I had known I was going to underutilize my degree major at the time, I would have chosen art, history, art history, or economics. :p

or maybe criminal justice :hmm:

diaphanous... floaty poem... like chasing the scent of jasmine on the wind...

(were you really a business major?)

cory, thank you.

I admit I really loved the way this poem came out too. I wasn't going to put it up because it's part of a past thing, you know... all the stuff I pulled, tag end of that. but I really really like it. I dreamed this poem, parts of it, over two nights.

ya, I have a BBA programming slant and about half an MBA (management focus) and just quit in the middle of a semester with a running 4.0 because I suddenly didn't want to anymore. oh well.

There is a lovely, sweet euphoria in this poem. What a heavenly way to drift.

You know I missed you; I did catch the poem. It made me cry. Sorry I got all elusive.

Yes, I love this painting and this artist. I am always very happy to link out to the artists I favor, but Hubs is not always so happy for me to do so.
