As I Dream

As I dream in the night, the world is mine to behold
where I see wondrous things that no one has foretold.
In adventurous travels, there are mountains I climb
and I'm not governed by the moving hands of time.

As I dream, I drift through dimensions of celestial skies,
imagining stars smile at me and wink their shining eyes.
I wander in my reveries, and my desires are fulfilled.
Last night I dreamed I painted the moon with gold gild.

Each time I dream, I delve deeper into my imagination.
Once, I found a handsome suiter for a brief flirtation.
He whispered words of love to me before kissing my lips,
then we merged with shadows of the moon's eclipse.

I try to dissuade the sun from rising at break of dawn,
hoping that my fantasy will linger on to hither and yon,
where magical realms glimmer like diamonds agleam.
I've many transcendent places yet to visit, as I dream.

What a wonderful dream you had Jenna, the sort that when you wake you close your eyes and sadly the dream has faded, gone forever. Best of luck and hope your week is going well. Tom

Good afternoon to you, Tom. I don't dream often, but when I do, I always remember them. The bad ones as well as the good. Thanks. It's midweek and so far, all is well. How goes it with you?
