Dream's Reality

"I dreamt, I was a butterfly or was I, a butterfly dreaming . . ." In deep ENRAPTURING sleep, ENTRANCING images dancing in my head, I am convinced it is reality. The freedom of flight DELIGHTFUL. Taking off, the most FASCINATING feeling, And soaring – such a sweet CAPTIVATING idea. And then I wake. My ENCHANTING dream remembered. I know it is time to leave my chrysalis, And emerge a butterfly reliving Her caterpillar dreams, As I flutter into my beautiful reality. Jack Horne for Constance's Daydreams and Dreams and Dreams contest, 7th July

Just a sweet write on change. The last verse is filled with the magic of the lovely butterfly.
