There is something out there
an echo on the airwaves
from the birds sitting
on the telephone wires.
I hear it in my head thrumming low,
sleepless again on a warm night in June.
Waves crash against the harbour,
over streets and up windy lanes.
Just another cryptic dreamer
lost to the sand dunes in the mind.
But it could be the only thing you’ll
think of, the only thing you’ll know.

Linking up with the new dversepoets pub today! Make mine a double.. 😉
Wings Over Waters 
mmm…i hear the humming…as long as you hold the dream i imagine you will be ok…smiles.
The humming’s getting louder… lol thanks Brian 🙂
Birds on telephone wires? Cryptic dreamer? I get reminded of Twitter : ) But seriously, I love your poem.
lol…reminds me a bit too! Thanks Martin 🙂
Louise! Another winner from you! Love the title…and the first at dVerse 🙂 Going down in the history books now!
Ah, another cryptic dreamer lost to the sand dunes in the mind……great piece….I can hear it thrumming low and loud
ha – indeed there’s something out there…i love the image of birds sitting on the telephone wires…..all airy and communicative…beautiful poem louise
Lovely sense of the mysterious, the unknown and perhaps the unknowable, as close as the wind, the humming, as far as the mind’s dunes of sand. Poised and subtle piece, Louise. And much enjoyed.
thrumming low…. love that… good ink Louise… exciting evening over at the pub! Cheers.
Love these lines:

Nice to meet you ~

Great work, a unique take on the call to create.
Nice poem. It seems very mystical and emotion.
The rhythms of the universe tie us to the sky and sea. It is “all we know and all we’ll ever know”. So happy you linked, came by to toast the crew, wrote some memorable lines and shared them with us. That’s what it’s all about so come back when you can. You’re always welcome. Thanks.
I find this almost mystical, hmm me likes this..’the only thing you’ll know’ hmm
Beautifully atmospheric piece, enjoyed this.
Thrumming through soul, this. Rhythmic. Entrancing. Just another cryptic dreamer, perhaps…but may the lot of us dream together, and paint the dreamscape with such lovely creations.
Cryptic Dreamer just has such a nice ring to it, and yes all should dare to dream.
I’m waiting to see what is out there. Nice Louise. Simple but evocative.
Thank you all for stopping by to read and comment. I think this new venture is going to be awesome. So glad to be at the party! 🙂
Such nights are familiar to many, albiet in my case, no harbor or waves, only gusting winds. Beautiful offering.
You had me at “thrumming” Lovely, Louise!
