Acrobatic Dreams

Night he loves for it brings him dreams,
Dreams that dawn with lingering hopes.   
They tip toe, through the sleeping beams
And land his glamorous room, using ropes.

They steal in; tap gently his dozing heart; 
Crawl in; and float in streams of thought.
Down the airy streams they glide so smart,
Guiding him to remain — gleefully afloat.
