In my dream

I watch you in your sleep.

My heart feels glad,

My heart leaps.

  

Images of you haunt me ~

  

From the time I wake,

‘Til my sleep.

Dreams sojourn ~

 Whimsy reflections

 On morning panes ~

  

 Coquets the mind

 Croons the dormant soul.

(tanka #2)

 

Dormant soul

Hatching, awaits

Dawn’s misty kiss ~

 

Artist awakens

Broods nestle on trees.

(tanka #3)

Courage ingrained

 Inside broken soul’s

 Callus chest ~

  

Anticipates sunrise,

 Enthused to exhale.

We are joined by our hearts’ seeking radars.

 Our souls converge at midnight’s deep blue skies.

 We talk, our words are the infinite stars.

 We feel so intimate with our closed eyes.

 Our unions are chronicled by my pen.

 The winds’ soft whistles signal your presence.

 Your image flickers through my window pane ~

 Silhouette of my dream-lover’s essence.

 In my mind I touch the face of heaven,

 When you croon to me lovesongs of silence.

   Bliss is what my thoughts of you has given.

 You illumined my lonely existence.

  

Romance confined in shadows of the night. 

 ‘Tis evanescent with the morning light.
