Poem–Welcoming You in My Dreams

Welcoming You in My Dreams

In my dreams

you draw me to you,
hold me close,
whisper tender words,
and bathe me in kisses.

United with you
I know how it feels
to be truly loved.
You’re always welcome

in my dreams.

My husband died 7 years ago. The nights he comes to me in my dreams remind me that he is always near.

    What a deeply tender and moving poem, 🤍 The words beautifully capture how love can continue to live beyond physical presence and how cherished memories can find their way back to us in the quiet of our dreams.

    There is something especially touching about the thought that, after seven years, your husband still finds a place beside you in those dream-filled nights. The poem carries both the ache of loss and the comfort of enduring love, without needing many words.

    1. Mary K. Doyle

      I’m always grateful for your warm and insightful comments, Vijay. All the best to you.

    Mary, this poem is lovely. Seven years, and he still finds his way to you, close and tender as ever. What a thing, to be so welcomed. My wife visits differently, riding in the seat beside me before sunrise on my way to a hike, so I read this and nodded. They stay near. Thank you for sharing him with us.
