Touched by a Magic Wand!
63
Often, when I dream at night,
The latent fantasies soar to a new height;
My spirit leaves my body and travels light,
I slip into perfect peace and everything feels so right.
Standing in a meadow and watching the Sun down,
In my dream my cascading hair shone golden brown;
With fiery orange rays filtering through each strand,
I felt like being touched by a Magic Wand.
I heard a voice melting in my ears,
Seeping deep into me and draining away all my fears;
Those magical words … ‘till death do us part’
Instantly lit up the dark alleys of my saddened heart.
My life had been worse than a shipwreck,
But the way he wrapped me in a blanket of love,
Gently running his fingers through my hair and kissing my neck,
I felt free from shackles and fluttered my wings like a love smitten dove.
I stood still as if under a spell,
For a few moments or aeons, I couldn’t tell;
With blood gushing through my veins;
It seemed hard to pull the reins.
I felt his heart beating against my chest,
Filling my whole body with a new zest;
With my mind completely at rest,
It sure felt like the end of my quest.
Then came the moment I always dreaded,
“It’s time to go.” He gently whispered;
With tears blurring my vision,
I saw him moving towards the horizon.
I ran after him in a state of numbness,
Tripping over a stone, I fell off the precipice;
The next moment I woke up on my bedroom floor,
With a hurt elbow and memories, that I would always adore.

So let him stay!
this was great anj, I haven't seen this side of your writing!
Well, a woman's version of a wet dream. Very nice job.
mysticdave: Thx very much for appreciating.
HotDorkage: I wish he stayed back. lol. It's very hard to find the love of your life and when you do, better not let him go. Thx for stopping by.
GoldenToad: Hey GT what did you think I was? A boring old woman with no (wild) imagination! LOL. I hope you know now. Thx for your showing up.
2C's: Thx a lot for your kind words.
Simply brilliant! Very romantic and creative- A true masterpiece. Who ever this lucky man is I can see you love him very much. I will hold this poem in a special place in my heart forever.
Anjali: You have many talents! I read your poem three times, it was like a beautiful sad ballad. This sounds like an eternal love, that will follow you for many lifetimes. Sigh, this was romantic.
I love hearing people's dreams. I wonder what you actually did to wind up on the floor. Ah, the wonders of sleep. Fantastic. I wonder if you'll dream it again, if not the same then in a different form. That happens to me sometimes.
my-success-guru: Yes I do love him as he's my dream man. (He comes in dreams). Lol. Thx very much for your being so generous.
Violet Sun: I guess you're right. I actually feel that it has been following me for many lifetimes. This truly feels like eternal love. You always make me feel flattered. Thx very much.
Frieda Babbley: Sshhh! That I can't tell you. Lol. I would want him to come to me every other night. Sigh! Thx for your kind comments.
Anju..I thought that you were one of the best writers,but you exel as a poet!The most beautiful love poem I have ever read...and you know what Anju?I felt I was dreaming this!LOL!All my best romances have been in my dreams!LOL!
Laila: Wow! You always make me feel special even when I'm not. Yes, best romances are in dreams only. I wish everyone on this earth could find his / her soulmate. Life could have been so beautiful that way. Thx a ton for your loving words.
Very romantic, the inspiration of this type of adoration is like a drug for men. The few times in my life that I was the protagonist it was heady indeed. But one can not savor such power. It only brings pain to both. The pain of loosing a treasured partner, and the pain of shame for causing such woe.
trooper22: I know what you're saying. The other day I left a comment in someone else's hub which I would like to share with you...."Love..hard to live with and even harder to live without."
I guess that's pretty much in line with what you think. It surely is agonizing to lose a treasured partner. Sigh! Despite this we still keep looking for love even when we lose it. That makes us human. Thx very much for stopping by.
I'm so glad I stopped by, as I found a treat waiting! What a beautiful poem. I have never seen a style such as yours and I absolutely love it!
Thanks for sharing this.
RooBee: Thanks very much for your generous comments. I'm so glad you liked it. Keep in touch.
A poem worth cherishing.. I loved it! It has a potential of becoming a good sad ballad .. I wrote something similar, will share on chat :D
yudaant: Thx very much for being so much appreciative of my work. Speaking of your poem....it was awesome. Mine simply got overshadowed. Why don't you write here on Hub Pages? It's better to show your incredible talent to a wider audience. Good luck.
So nice, flow took me to a different world.
rajpravin431: I'm glad you liked it. Thx for appreciating my work.
Bard!
Earthscribe: Thx again for taking out time to read this poem.
