Watered Dreams

In misty fogs of the faded hours

Where the granite kisses ground

The silence will echo heartaches

When there’s no one else around

The ageless fairy princess stands

Her gossamer wings red burgundy

Her jeweled teardrops kiss stone

She whispers his name tenderly

They once dwelt in different worlds

His was human…hers a mystic realm

Alone, love was a ship tossed at sea

Cast adrift with no one at the helm

Then their different worlds collided

Romance knew not what was to be

A chance meeting and a stolen kiss

Now the rest was just love’s history

Ah but mortals live but so many years

While a fairy princess lives eternally

So she buried him upon the very site

Where they fell in love so magically

So o’er his bones long turned to dust

She stops to talk to him each day

Her teardrops make the flowers grow

Of their dreams of hope of yesterday…
