Dreamcatcher

I gaze in childlike awe at clear blue skies then run barefoot, carefree on sandy beach to catch a dream elusive as the tides. The gulls fly low, its wings I almost reach, I spread my arms as one who flies with them, then run barefoot, carefree on sandy beach. A pebble on the sand, my only gem to throw against the waves as gulls watch me – I spread my arms as one who flies with them. I listen to the crashing surf with glee, forget my blues as I pick up more stones, to throw against the waves as gulls watch me. Sunlit clouds cover my twilight zones, I soak my toes at water’s edge, shivering, forget my blues as I pick up more stones. My dark emotions slowly disappear, I gaze in childlike awe at clear blue skies, I soak my toes at water’s edge, shivering, to catch a dream elusive as the tides
