In the Depth of Slumber

In the depth of my slumber I could see the nobility Of the dream laid out Before Me Tantalizing, enticing, raptureous Glee, thus it entangles my mind Like streamers round a may pole Wrapping me up in it's pleasant Tranquility Parading it's surreal beauty down The main thorough fare that Winds its way through my mind scape I am enthralled By vivid images Of carnation pink mountains Floating across a periwinkle sky Their peaks Haloed by cornflower blue Fuchsia and seafoam green clouds I watch winged horses Prance upon A sunset tapestry I see maidens dressed in stunning Attire their angelic voices serenade The moon as it begins its ascent Amidst the shimmering moonbeams Frolic secret words of a poet The incantations dazzle the mind And leave this dreamer breathless Speechless on my knees before The majesty of the dream and the Nobility of it laid out before me So in the depth of your slumber Try to see the nobility of the dream Laid out before you and enjoy it For dreams such as this are precious and few Sleep deep and dream well

Sometimes poetry travels. It can go far, it can go wide. This poem goes deep, deep into the psyche beyond the conscious to the sub-conscious where days gone bye are stored waiting to be brought to light in verse.
