I tried to participate in DreamDeers dream experiment but as usual I could not get to sleep. However my mind did it's usual wanderings and because I was concentrating on this subject I did come up with this. I probably seen this in a movie or picture some ware, who knows. Now, I wonder if any one else had the same vision last night. In a way that would kinda be the same, sort of.
Once upon a time in a failed evening's sleep.I resorted to counting proverbial sheep.While a waiting for dreams to enter my head.I tossed and turned all night in my bed.Peering out from hiding beneath my pillow.I stared at the alarm clock's dark amber glow.Dawn's soft rays signaled the passing of night.Still I still lay as a corpse at a burial site.In my struggle for rest was a vision or two.Aside matters financial and things still to do.I imagined a home built on the edge of a dream.Between shadows of dark and light's twin extreme.Above swirled a sky like a gathering storm.In a far away center glowed a circular form.Mixed was the noise of birds and harsh angry wind.Called also echoing voices desperately determined.The structure resided on thick moss covered ground.Far away trees silhouetted a top rocky high mounds.Beyond the gray shadows was a deepening void.Dwelled wishes abandoned and ware hope is destroyed.The wood shingled cottage with it's chimney of stone.Was rustically quaint as it sat all alone.A flicker of candles illuminated a pathway.And beckoned me closer to the lonely chalet.An errand thought quickly passed, I lost my hold on this place.Leaving broken glimpses in my mind's darkened space.For what ever it was and for what ever it means.Still resides in a shack at the edge of my dreams.

Fascinating! A fierce storm blew over my home as I went to bed to attempt to dream with you, and I had candles flickering on my altar (in safe containers within containers.) |
I love all your poems, they are so inspiring.
LizThey come straight from your heart and soul.
