Gingham Dreams















What you have come to place in the pocket

of my thread-bare gingham dreams

is more than it can hold.

I will keep it in my heart.

I will save it in my soul.

Everyday would be like a kiss in the palm of your hand.

    That line evokes such imagery for me...beautiful.

  2. Thank you, Steven. The last line was inspired by a poem, but I can't remember if it was Hafiz or Rumi.
