Fairytale Dream
14 February 1999

Words fail to fill this page
with the emotions captivating my head
I agonize over each noun, verb
adjectives have all been used,
But what I feel is less cliché
and more poignant, almost pungent
if it was a smell.
So how can the scent of your perfume
seem new each time, or your smile
make my heart skip a beat
like the first instant you smiled that smile
meant only for me?
Eyes sparkling in a new light,
cast not just a glance, but a spell
like out of fabled stories of long ago
when time was nothing ordinary
but enchanted with princes and frogs
each hoping that somewhere
a maiden fair and true would lead them
through the fairytale dream
much as I look to you, my fair Princess
to take my hand once more
and dance to the music
which plays for only me and you
us, we in all our forms together,
and yet one, sharing our hearts
our minds, our very souls.
Our laughter the accompaniment
to the shuffling of our feet
as we drift through the night
like moonlight on calm waters,
and I enter my fairytale dream with you.
