A Curious Dream

*                                    *                                          *                                            *



I wander tonight, in a curious slumber                                              *
My sleep is held captive by the man in the moon
He peeks through my window, while enchanting the room                        *                   Enticing my dreams, where a choir assembles

The heavens entrance me with musical rumbles
The clouds twirl around to melodious tunes
Enraptured tonight, in my curious slumber                                               *
My sleep is held captive by the man in the moon

Against window glass, branches tap to a rumba
With the breeze blowing in, curtains swirl pirouettes
Joining in, are the nightingales, warbling duets
As showers of meteors fall into tumble
I wander tonight, in a curious slumber
