Dreamland

Taste the wind
On the tip of your tongue
Close your eyes and reach
Into the night,
Float into the cosmos
To weave your fingers into mine
In the timelessness of dreams;

Tiptoe with me
Across the universe
In the glow of a silver moon
And dance on the Milky Way
With stars in our eyes
Until, breathless,
We slide down the handle
Into the Big Dipper
To curl up in each others arms
Whispering I Love You
Into the silence
As we fall asleep.
