My Dear

I saw you,
In a dream, My Dear.

In a dress of white you stood,
Upon a sandy beach, though where,
I am not sure.

I watched you,
Watching me, My Dear.

For that moment, eternity,
Till you smiled, dipped your head,
And turned to leave.

I heard,
As you went, My Dear.

Whispers of songs on the wind,
You sung, a mellow tune,
Though I could not make out the words.

I tried to catch you,
My Dear.

But your stride, it was too strong
And I soon fell behind, till I woke.

Your questioning eyes,
Your content smile,
These are all that remain with me,
Of that restless night,
My Dear.

    Last night I had a dream
    and you were there with me
    so I held back my scream
