Waking,
2 minutes
before
the alarm rings.
2 minutes
to dream
of you.

2 minutes
to wonder
how it would be
waking next to you.
2 minutes
to imagine
you were
truely mine.


2 minutes
before my day starts
and my fantasies
are through.
2 minutes
is all I need
to envision
my dreams
were true.

Very Nice, Loreli

This poem is refreshingly unique. Your diction is good and the rhythm is great. I loved the ending. Nice work, Loreli! Love-Faith ~I never say anything I don't mean nor do I say anything to be mean.~

Hi Loreli, I enjoyed this.

Hi Loreli, I enjoyed this. I think it might read better though if you changed the 2 to TWO. Also, truely should be truly. Welcome to Neo. Sue

Thank you for that....should have used spell check...LOL! Also thanks for the suggestion on the word two. Glad to be here....although somewhat anxious about submitting my writing I know it will only help me to be better from all of your suggestions! Thanks again Sue! Loreli

did something wrong

tried to change the 2 to Two and change a spelling error.... It didn't work so it was resubmitted as new with no changes! GRRRRRRR

Fantastic Loreli

Brilliant write the only thing I can see amiss is the spelling in this line... {truely} mine. ………[truly] Xena Quote: Science is what you know; philosophy is what you don't know. - Bertrand Russell
