Hi Curt,
I really enjoyed this – it has such a dreamy, floating quality, I love how it moves from the soft, floating imagery of dreams into the sudden jolt of reality. “And then you said,” ‘Hi.’” The image of a dream as “fire in a red dress dancing barefoot” is striking and memorable. It feels like a brief, beautiful moment where fantasy and reality touch. Dreams inspire me. This piece resonates with me

Exactly RomaJ. Thank you. If I remember correctly, this dream woke me up. Unfortunately, there was no “reality” of her dancing in a red dress, barefoot or otherwise. Oh well. Dreams do inspire. It inspired this poem. Thanks again for your kind words and visit.

This is somewhat like Déjà vu to me. Something kind of jolts you, but in a way, you’ve felt it before.

To be honest, I was roaming through some of my notebooks and found this poem. So in one sense, yes, there was some Deja vu involved. But it was a dream I had back then (2009) that found its way on paper.
Thank you, Tim, for your comment and perspective on this poem.

“Marcella does not need reminding of her beauty, but then, occasionally, she likes to be pointed in that direction”. You have such a way of paraphrasing a line, that makes it speak for itself. I am such an admirer of your work, but then, I think you already know that!
My “Icarus” will soon be “falling”. Can’t wait to get your reaction! Oh, btw, I really like your avatar! So distinguished and handsome!

Book covers are meant to draw you in even if the book itself is rubbish.
I used to plough through books even if they were rubbish….not now.I give them about two chapters.If they haven’t got me by then,it’s arrivederci.
Our partners should be treated the same….lol-

I must have missed something in those synopses.

Reading has its dangers lol. Can’t help feeling this poem is going to be relatable to many. Made me smile you did Tim.

Clever, funny, and painfully relatable – This is the kind of truth you laugh at because it hurts a little. haha
The final line is brilliant.-

So true! A 20 yr old boy at my local market goes on and on about the girl he is going to marry. They met on the Internet a few months ago and met up in person twice. You can’t suggest he slow down. So often, we think we know it all. I was going to be happy when I escaped my .
mother’s home. First hubby was as violent and crazy as her.-

I really appreciate your comment, Paula. I assumed you didn’t like anything I wrote. 🙂
Yes, some guys are too lost in the fantasy world to see what’s really there. Life will splash some cold water in their face when it’s too late.Sorry about your hubby and mom. I know it’s hard to get over that or forget. My mother was an alcoholic. I’ve had some horror in my life to.
