Gypsy Girl in Me

Poem Artwork

Once I danced, I
            dreamed of life’s mystery
in lost, sparkling
eyes of emerald sea.

Horizon of
            contagious smile stretched wide
to gentle slopes,
revealing joy inside.

Surrounded by
            family of Love’s choice,
I thrived in hope.
I lifted my own voice.

Grace shown down and 
            shadows fled, held no sway.
Long night passed in
celebration of day.

My love, this heart
            filled to overflowing.
Loss of you… there
was no way of knowing.

Wandering, how
            I long to move with you,
to leap through life,
recapture missing hue.

So far removed
            from gift of yesterday,
I’ve lost true self
and joy along the way.

Once I danced, I
            dreamed of life’s mystery.
Where has she gone,
that gypsy girl in me?

Very creative, and, in a way, sensual, Dawn, just from the movement and cadence... Lovely expansive work. :)

i ask myself this question at least once a day...i agree with karla, she is still there, we just have to connect..something that gets harder as the years go by

This is really romantic and passionate.
A wonderful piece with a hint of sadness
but hope the gypsy in you has never left.

Dawn, this one has the taste of 'old world' to it that really romances the heart.
Excellent works.

Very absorbing poem. the rythm is wonderful. In our culture when somebody says someone is inside me, we tell him or her to wait until that someone speaks from within. just wait Dawn you will soon hear the voice of the gypsy girl coming through you. Very interesting and beautifully crafted poem.
