Two dreamers met upon a windswept shore.
I know you.
Are we awake or dreaming?
The wind erased their footprints from the sands.
Two swallows fluttered underneath a bough.
We're here.
But soon we'll be asleep--
They left their passage marked upon the sky.
Two salmon passed each other in the deep.
You're dreaming.
We've waterfalls to climb.
They wrote their wisdom on the water's flow.
We're two.
We'll be only One.

this is lovely, haunting
Beautiful. I love the rhyme and the theme of dreaming. Delicate.
Beautifully poetic! The last line in each stanza took my breath away!
Very effective use of form to express subject. Nice.
Lovely weaving, you took me on with you. I love the music and dreaming.
A fine example of the layout of a poem contributing to its overall effect.
"Are we awake or dreaming?
Yes."
Love those lines.
