Dreamed In Colors

I closed my eyes tonight and dreamed up high..
I rode the milky way above all the unpainted rainbows that didn't cry..
I saw black and white lines so perfectly drawn..
I circled the moon so many times not to miss a view before dawn..
All at once beauty could not be withheld anymore..
And then hands from so high above colored it all with one roar..
I then leaped forward and rode a rainbow back home in peace..
Back to my world where I know there are colors when I sleep..

you mentioned eternal love, but then called an atheists poem profound..so i was lost..I am assuming you are not a believer or christian because that is frowned down upon, the Lord dismisses that

Its poetry, as poet playing with words.. My thoughts my dreams... If your insulted on any level, don't read... I brought up Catholic and still do live my life that way...

good poem..confused though he spoke of eternal love..but then called an atheists poem profound, so I am assuming you do not believe in God to support atheist views then? I would imagine not hehe..the Lord would dimiss you alone for that
