Moonlit river

The splendour of the moonlit river
as it shimmers its way into the distance
the beating heart of the Happy Houseboat
taking its lovers into the dreamland
of peace and seclusion.
The trees whispering on the rivers banks,
so as as not to waken the birds
lovers laughter
over candlelit dinner
the stars twinkling their silent agreement.
The crickets chirping
the stillness and the noises of natures silences
The houseboat weaves her way to a beautiful dawn

looks like you are prepared to dream. The setting in your poem is dreamy and very romantic indeed. the next question is, are you brave enough to let go? i guess we'll have to wait and see.

I am glad you were inspired by "i know a beautiful place"
