Daydream (for RB)

by Patrick T. Power

Sometimes, it takes a daydream.
Sometimes, it takes imagining
that all the wonders of the world
wait outside the door.

You know... the natural wonders:
a kiss on the lips that sends a heart pounding to the moon and back;
a touch from fingers that have learned to whisper,
"Your heart is safe with me";
a smile that speaks a language known only to two.

Sometimes, it takes a daydream.
Sometimes, it takes believing
that all the wonders of the world
wait outside your door
