Notes About The Poem

Delightful Dream Drift

Dream moon  gazing,
at its flit and flow,
over urban slumber,
that nocturnal bliss,
haze of radiance,
blissful balm benign,
shivery glow aligned,
dark ink canvass,
skyline thirst for,
wink and blink,
star dust menu,
green leaf copse,
smothered hedge row,
black veiled footpath,
lack of lustre,
from the heavens,
yet passing orb,
behind frilled clouds,
in  spartan bounty,
might shed blob,
of lean luminance.

Sara Kendrick March 5, 2026 at 4:21 AM I see the moon in its orbit at the opening of some clouds very distinctly through your words. I also see a darkening face with an angry eye. The snapshot is very nice. Thank you for sharing it with us.
