Under this purple sky,
promises were whispered.
I’m waiting - still hoping -
to meet you someday,
inside my Rose Garden,
where our dreams are made of:
We can go fishing in the rainbows on a lazy afternoon;
Or perhaps we can lie on the green meadows,
look up to the blue sky,
watch the clouds to float by.
they carry our dreams,
shape them, to take forms;
By night fall I will be Cinderella,
my gold carriage will carry me to you.
The clock will never strike twelve.
You will meet me at the dance hall,
and I will be wearing my glass slippers.
We will be dancing all night;
You, will fill my heart
with joy and moonstruck wonders,
and I, like a flower in spring,
will be sprouting,
growing, spreading, waiting...
...for your sweet love's sting.
For here, inside my Rose Garden -
is where all dreams are made of;
is where lovers will love
without shame nor regrets;
is where songs are sung in harmony -
I will be waiting for you.
SO BEAUTIFUL, MY FRIEND! AND HAVEN'T WE ALL WALKED UNDER A 'PURPLE SKY' AT ONE TIME OR ANOTHER... IN MOMENTS OF OUR LIVES WHEN WE'VE ALLOWED OURSELVES THE PLEASURE OF FANTASIZING? WELL DONE AND ENJOYED. LOVE, BLESSINGS AND FAITH...HIS+INSPIRATIONS
Magically inviting and compelling, Sandie. Thank you for sharing this gift. Love and peace to you,
Regis

This peom contains a generous helping of magic. I especially like: "...and I will not lose a slipper, so we can dance all night;" and ending with reference to the dress changing colors. Great title, which is wrapped nicely in your last line. I enjoyed this, Sandie. ~~ Diana
Beautifully expressed with a great longing for love. You could link up with Prince and his purple rain and then head on down to old man Johnson's farm. ;-)
Love is universal and not limited to the most perfect among us. In this collection of romantic short stories and poetry, love comes to those who are decidedly imperfect, who possess very real human flaws, scars, and challenges. Awaiting us as we are.
