Description
through wistful reverie, i visit you, dear,angel so close, yet so far away,
sweetest paramour, whom i wish to be near.
regarding the stars on the nights that are clear,
i linger in contemplation until that day.
through wistful reverie, i visit you, dear.
left with just memories to muse and revere,
beckoning shadows and ghosts to stay.
sweetest paramour, whom i wish to be near.
search for the course that fate wants to steer,
the actors left tangled within this play.
through wistful reverie, i visit you, dear.
with all that i long for, and yet still i fear,
even your echo will soon pass away,
sweetest paramour, whom i wish to be near.
down corridors of time my eyes try to peer,
and hope us together, with each breath i pray.
through wistful reverie, i visit you, dear,
sweetest paramour, whom i wish to be near.

practice helps, yes.

Why thank you, dear.
I have been told my rhyming is perfectly fine. But, to me, it resonates within my ears like a bloody Hallmark card. So long as that is not the case, I shall be satisfied.

I am constantly experimenting and was far too tempted to try this poetic form. Otherwise, I would have eschewed anything forcing me to rhyme.

Oh good. 
Rhyming is not a strong suit. I have very little confidence in my work when I incorporate rhyme. (I fear sounding like a bloody Hallmark card.

"The wind dances in four directions and touches what it sees ...
But of all the breezes I have ever felt...
only one encircles me...
It gently slips beyond my thoughts...
and hides within my needs...
Capturing my heart inside...
Through words you made me breathe... "
As I have remarked ad nauseam, SHE is very lucky.

Your comments are always a treat, my dear. I enjoy the quotations you provide immensely.
She is not the lucky one. I do believe it is the other way around. But hopefully she fancies this devil just the same.

Great job with this one. I cannot rhyme to save my life...at times I can barely string words in a coherent sentence. Kudos!

Rhyming is not my strong suit in the slightest. As such, I am a bit relieved I managed to complete the entire poem.
And I have read your work. You haven't anything to worry about with regard to stringing words in a coherent sentence.

I know you speak of longing to be with someone you know, but for me, these echo so much the longing I felt for the soulmate I once had yet to meet. I love them.
