What dream is this?



What dream is this?
That you and I
may kiss tonight?

A folly from afar
has placed starlight
in your eyes,
and its twinkling
brightness just belies
the sighs and cries and whys,
which will surely follow this.
Our first, ice-crystal kiss.

    I like your closing line our first ice-crystal kiss. I think you have really captured the kiss. I have tried my first poetry challenge on Gooseberry Garden. I really enjoy this poem very much.
