sweet dreams [40 word challenge

close those eyes
feel this breath
sweet blowing kisses
ever so softly
in tenderness
into your sleep
a moonlight shadow
gently caresses
softly upon
your cheek

peach lips kiss
sweet melting honey
into those dusky dreams
held only in paradise

madam

upon the sweet flare
breathing within
the nose
a scent of roses
like petals
falling feelings

satin upon skin
a silky emotion
cotton soft
caressing the words
which i breathe

surrounding
my inner chambers
glows loves beauty
i fall
as i do enter

in open arms
i invite
you in
the drums
in the heart
begin beating

tonight
i beg you enter
a knight
at the round table
my crusade i found

a treasure love
i offer a toast
in your honour
to you the grail

as the moon kisses
in her silver shadows
the trees ever so gently
with this light
i fall within
the night
to fall
within you

heart

as the night
falls down dead
in colourless thoughts
polluting inner eye
drifting about lifeless

waters in storm swell
creeping out of shadows
strangling emotions
choking the life
in the host

deep frozen chilled
cutting to the bone
in odourless pain pleas
battle in the clouds
without mercy

gasping crushing blow
the taste of cold steel
sweetly cut deep
in swollen red eyes
i bled on you

drained tired look
tearing emotions
sick to the stomach
knotted up tight
barking mad

the heart in pain cries
silent lips move
quivering ache
on barren land
parched the feeling

walking through the eye
a zombie
in the graveyard of death
heartless soul lost
lifeless the eyes

a mirror light within
deep burning fire
warms the heartbeat
each beat
fractured and broken

in the dark
alone
to die
is love
buried

lightning strike

in the grand theatre
opening in the Heaven,s
drifting across the sky,
cloaked in darkness

whistling unseen voices
darkened within rage,
nature's forces
at work
rising wind salute

in static
hair raising
falling down the spine
banging drums
growling almighty roars

grumbling unforeseen forces
churning in it's might,
an earth shattering clap
applauding trees bend
wind blowing gale

lighting up dark
bowing to light
in strike daylight
unmerciful power

battle in darkened clouds
alight candy floss
falling rain crystals
in sparkling diamonds
lightning strikes

as the thunder roars
frightening night
rumbling drum beats
upon nature's might
you strike

touching

alone lips cold
awaiting warm softness
in shades of blue
a warmth
within emotion
happiness falls
on a dream

as the blood
flows red
one rose
blooms out softly
in petal
soft feelings
gently rains
touching softly
the cheeks

a wind whispers
kissing the moon face
in shadows
of silver light
upon clouds
following dreams
emotions roll
within one soul

love i see you
rising morning
warmly dressed
covered in
the dew
of morn
touching underneath
one's eyes

alone one soul
kissing upon
the heart
of a rose
yet to bloom
crowning soft petals
love an emotion
sings out
still remains
lighting beautiful

white rose

a thousand saints
would fall myrtre
in a heavenly hue
you are the fairest
by far the prettiest
in purest of colours
mirror, mirror
amazingly georgous
purity indepth vision
white rose

most beautiful
satin soft petals
falling from the heart
outwards crowning
heavenly beauty

sweetest aroma
drifting on air
upon scent
prettiest of all flowers
in thorns you
played the part

deep inside
invites from colour
the softest kiss
upon light of day

mirror ,mirror
caressed so sweetly
in the rising sun
by the morning dew
beautiful
within

alight in the dark

the dark side
of the sun
sunny side up
i begin searching
in the soul

with light
from the moon
caressing deep
dark space
twinkling stars
shining

winking i look
upon the moons
face smiling
silver shadows
dancing

fluttering light
in the trees
hiding
seek and you will find
as night speaks
i whisper
softly

without a voice
not lost
dreaming something beautiful
a lonely wolf
upon a mountain top
coming out
of the shadows

howling into night
one with his shadow
lighting up
bright in
the dark
in the moon face

feelings

In deep blue
Awakening senses
Cold opening
Innermost eye
Deep inside
Hidden away
Feather soft
Cotton feelings

Touches upon love
Softly bound together
In golden thread
One treasure
In a circle
Of emotions
A beautiful presence
Fireworks explode
Two souls kiss

Friendship touching deeper
Than the skin
Drawing emotion
Poetry
in the making
Love within
Kissing one soul
Without lips

Snug in a blanket
Warm and tender
Drawing out
The one rose
A fairytale dream
I love the sparkle
In your eyes
When I
Look into them

Beyond words
a softness
Echoed
in the heart
As butterflies
They flutter
Dancing feelings
Lie deep within

dreamy

in the cemetery
one of love
dying many times
etched deep
circle of life
each time
shines golden

silent voices
without words
as the plot thickens
whispering inside
treasured feelings
emotions rise
sparkling lights
in a distance

close your eyes
i am dreaming
is any of it real
do dreams ever
come true
the door creeks
chambers begin opening
slowly handing
the keys over
awakening
to you
a dream

perfect stranger

my hand is out for a dream
holding someone special
to walk in life
you at my side,
a friend for life
to be forever happy
a dream the perfect woman
lifes mystery
you are out there
if my dream comes true
holding out for a miracle
looking for you
loves finest hour
still a stranger to me

hold my hand

emotions begin
to play
within one's body
sparkling
in the fountains
of life

power to generate
such a soft feeling
within the soul
you raise me up
in a beautiful wave
galloping unfurling

rolling it in front of you
the carpet red
in passion flows
upon an ocean
blue deep

i offer to you
a ship
to set sail
heading the distance
paradise island

wildest dreams
please jump aboard
my love
firstly take a sip
from one of
the finest
of wines

let the journey begin
if only i could
take you
in a circle
around the world

docked underneath
a coconut tree
just to hold
your hand
in the sweetest
of dreams

touching fingers
feelings petal soft
to look into
those eyes
melting upon
the embers
moves emotions
within my soul
you dance
with butterflies

one can see
an ocean swelling
bursting forth
with me dropping
plus you
head over heels
hand in hand
we will walk
the path
to paradise

picture perfect

only love
can make
a soul
creep out
from within
its hiding space

opening up
giving wings
fluttering hearts
begins beating
to the same tune
touching feelings
souls mate

two hearts
begin building
one castle
dreams joined
together their kingdom
a paridso
of emotions
one masterpiece
Piccasso of dreams
