Wizard Dream Feather

Wizard Dream Feather Four ancient stone cups filled with potions Distinctly different spells filled to the top Consumed by a bearded, ancient, wrinkled man Downed from left to right in perfect sequential order Down to the wizard mystic world enchantment spot Old man breaths in powdered breath of blue Above a pewter plate of silver gray Molecules take on the magic of the mystic dish Commingled atoms swirling Wood table brightly lighted in the lab/library room The dream feather comes from within Hovers above the empty saucer sacred air From nothing appears a spark of life Nowhere in nature is it found but floating there Empty plate displays a bird like invention clear Plume curved slightly up and tall takes form Stands two inches high in full rotation slow Spiral like, soft on the edges brown and light Scarlet red fills in the feather center Neon yellows round out the shape The lesson of the day is full deduction Where does this rare duck specimen belong? What is the origin wright or wrong? This ornithological exercise still to be determined Measured to conclusions on feathered strength Wizard dreams puzzle to that end

Hi Miraj, Thank you so much. I rarely dream or remember dreams. I had a vivid dream 2 nights ago about being a member of a bird association or organization, studying feathers, drinking powder and liquid potions and dissecting feathers from different species of birds. I guess I was influenced by that experience. Thanks again for commenting. Glad you liked it. Have a great day. Earl
