The prompt for this week's poem on ReadWritePoem  is  'Dream' and my poem is entitled 
'After she's gone..' my first effort on the site..appreciate any comments.


A young man, in love for perhaps the first time...whose lover has literally just departed from his bed leaving him alone with only his dreams for comfort...

After She's Gone...

After she's gone...
The scent of her lingers.
Won't  wash  away...
From my hair or my fingers 

After she's gone...
The warmth of her stays a while...
Sensual and comforting...
The thought of her makes me smile.

After she's gone...
Still taste her sweet flavours...
On my lips from a kiss..
That my memory savours.

After she's gone...
I picture her sleeping.
And I know that my heart...
Will be safe in her keeping.


The End.

Sorry to do this as anonymous but I don't know how else to make it work. I tried open ID but it said I had to edit my profile but I have no idea what they wanted me to edit on it! Very wierd!

Anyway...

These are the best dreams!
You evoke them so well!
