Dreaming In the Shades of a Purple Sun

The cool breeze carries with it The distant songs of blackberry winter. Slowly seeping through your mind's barrier, The verdurous artist's lush designs... Come to life. The everlasting evergreens are forevermore evolving. In your mind, where the sky is always pink, And the sun is purple, the dreams have never found An easier road to travel. On Spring's honey stairway, they fly. The shadows, blue. Blue. Silver apples. Silver apples. Falling from the cherry sky. Falling to the ground, And sprouting orange flowers. Nightfall comes swiftly though, And oh! How prosaic this image is rendered, In the light of a moon that colors the world In black and white.

Dreamful and epic!! @.@ Every image is so colorful even when sprouting night-time images; the combination of nouns and andjectives that are not supposed to match in what people like to calle the "democratic reallity" is great!!! Breaks trhough dullness and daily life and brings freedom to your senses and your mind! Thanks for the experience!!=D
