FIELD OF DREAMS

 

.

 

 

Whisper quiet through summer rain

The field lay vibrant, thirst now quenched

And through the silence of her pain

A heart so pure in turmoil, wrenched

Fingers tense and mind unclear

How the thoughts like leaves now swirled

A woman's worldliness and fears

Hid within the frightened girl

 

Love betrayed by callous deeds

No thoughts for her amidst the act

Spurned, the lover, now hearts bleed

Deceit and lies to cover facts

As memories like fluffy clouds

Began to cross her furtive mind

Softly tears fell, cries aloud

Forgiveness she could never find

 

The field of dreams lay baron, scorched

Mascara mixed with tears of salt

The flame had died on loves great torch

To move on now, she knew she ought

And in the gentle field she lay

Pondering how fate so cruel

Could leave her battered, bruised this way

The victim ever feels the fool

 

Summer showers overhead

Blue green eyes of steel resolve

No man could rule by things he'd said

Around him she would not revolve

Bowed, unbeaten there she rose

And swore, determination strong

Life, the journey, pathways chose

She would survive despite his wrongs

Many thanks to a remarkable woman and my good friend Mandy Frost for her patience in braving the iminent July rain showers.
