A Dream

I dreamt I flew upwards
toward the twinkling shining stars.
But who was I?
An exotic insect painted in various hues,
Iridescent wings strong like an eagle.
I flew high. Flew as I could,
Up towards the Milky way,
Back to Saturn jumping from ring to ring
Down to Venus, would I find love?
So I watched the universe revolving,
observe the brilliance of novas
Fell into a deadly black hole
Only to wake up in bed,
With to a silver moonbeam
Shining straight in my eyes.

A beautiful dream, Victor ! I often have such dreams of flying in the sky like a bird. But you have gone far too high to watch galaxies and super novas.... :) :)

Victor Victor Victor. Thank goodness for dreams because with them we can fly high and higher. This is more than lovely and wonderful expression. Truly. May this day find you well and safe. Blessings always.

I think that would be a really cool dream to have but I don't think I ever imagined myself as an insect or animal, only as someone younger or different looking. NIce imagery

What a beautiful dream! And almost as dreamy to awaken to a moonbeam. This poetic gem is a fave. Hugs.
