A Simple Dream

A dream is simply a story
It has neither a beginning, nor an end
It starts in the middle and ends where it began
Like all stories, it paints a picture
Some pictures are in charcoal, others are embossed
But they all proffer an image, in the minds’ eye
An eye which may not see clearly
But it is a vision nonetheless
A vision of grandeur, a vision of love or 
Simply a vision of nonsense

Haha - me too Barbara. Thnx for popping round to browse my scribbles. I honestly had a lot of fun writing that one. I'm sorry if some of my stuff seems a little skewed towards the environment, but hey, I guess its my way of venting...

Dreams are mysterious things. They can be good or bad, and they may even inspire us to keep dreaming! I really enjoyed your beautiful poem, Mark! Very nicely done!
