Morning over Geneva (c) Yseult, 2008.

If I could have dreamt of gold and clarity,
that one moment where the fever stops
and your peace sets in.

If I could dream your ways
and wish to live through them,
through You,
trough us and nothing else.

If I could choose to have nothing but you
in every move, every tear and every wish

If I could aim for your glory and your light,
could lay it all down,

what I would be,
what I could be,
what I’ll never be
and
what I’ll never see

If I could wish for just one dream,
one aim and goal,
that dream would be of you.

    You write some amazing poetry. I was listening to some old CDs (yes, still have a lot of those) while I was reading your blog. The song “Somewhere Tonight” by Bob Seger was on and the words spun for me a completely different meaning than I had ever heard before. It’s obviously a song about Prayer and God’s longing for us as your poem is about our longing for Him. Just Beautiful!

    Thanks for sharing this and the others.

    Thank you, Greg. You’re not the first one to point out Bob Seger to me interestingly enough.
    I’m glad you like what you’re reading here.
