A Yellow Shadow

Suddenly a yellow shadow of a silent river kissed the fragrance of my dreams and wholeheartedly mumbled around my crazy eyes of revelations ! The blue breathing of the shadow disappeared gently into the bubbles of lullaby sung by the fairy river, I never ever heard before. Two lines still I could remember............... "open your eyes and be cheer up a garden of love-bees waiting for your close up" And I opened my eyes with all empty sights !

What a captivating opening stanza, Nilima! Is it the fragrance of your dreams that I can pleasantly smell! Is it fair that we have to wake up to reality? ~ Regards // paul

Yup dear Poet..we can't run away from reality.. I often think the reality as a side effect of my dreams....without dreams also we can't face our reality wisely....Thank you so much for your comments dear poet.Regards !
