A Deeper Sleep

As shadows grace 
our city 
   we fall into a 
deeper sleep 
    than any we have known 
Eyes close and we are 
         taken 
      to lands we once 
knew 
   The songs we hear a
are ethereal 
     Everything is sprinkled 
with stardust 
   As the moon rises 
we feel the energy 
of a thousand exploding stars 
it rocks the very
   fiber of our 
being 
if you wish to understand 
    on a deeper level 
then let us join hands '
    and walk towards 
the glittering suns 
    in different parts 
     of the universe 
As above - so below" 
Let that be your credo 
   As you pass 
through the corridors 
     of time 
to a fate which 
   will delight and suprise you 
Eglerio!

What a sweet dream to have. Filled with all the images real life doesn't have. Who wouldn't want to dream like this. PS, your visits are always special, thanks Matthew
