~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I dreamt a poem in the night. The syllables all fit. I dreamt a poem, slim and slight. It was the soul of wit. I dreamt a poem in the night, but this one isn’t it.

Very unique and poetic, Sara. You are among them who live and breathe poetry. Write on!

thanks, Vijay. Yes I do somedays eat and breathe poetry...ideas come to me during the night. I've learned to write them down, for I don't remember them in the morning light :-)

We all have had similar experiences i think, i had a prompt sometime ago too called “ i dreamt of a poem forgot the words” you somehow nailed it with these lines, i love cuteness of this, and what it depicts in the most deep manner , sometimes dreams are perfect and better too than reality! Pleasure always reading your sincere poetic expressions. Sending you light always

thanks for your visit, dear Ink. Sounds like we've had another 'similar' experience. Glad you liked the cuteness and depth of my words. Wishing you a pleasant day, hugs, Sara

It's amazing what we dream about, I remember I was trying to remember the name of someone I worked with and strangely enough his name was mentioned in a dream I had. It was still fresh in my mind when I woke up. Tom

I agree, Tom. Dreams are fascinating; always amazed me what our subconscious is capable of in the dream state. Thanks for visiting. Have a pleasant day, Sara
