Dreams Within Dreams

I am dreaming and I am flying
   the wind is taking my sails across the ocean
     I love the awesome vastness
        the aqua blue waves cascading
          the crisp wind pushing my humble boat
             the azure sky above
                   and the birds drifting and floating
                     they are calling my name
                           then, I am a bird sailing
                as dolphins leap high into the air 
                   full of freedom and bliss
                       then, I am a dolphin leaping
                                gliding, flying, flying, flying
                                    then, just a girl dreaming
                                dream within dreams and dreams
                               seeking my true north
                             that place that has been calling to my soul 
                             I remove my heavy cloak of grief
                           letting it fall away with the storm of life
                        and I am dreaming and I am flying, flying
                    then, I am a bright orange fish in the coral reef
              and I am the watcher and player in this underwater scene
         in this dream I partake and observe
       sailing, flying, drifting, floating
      then, I must leave my dreams and dreams
    to awaken to morning chirping birds
  once again a girl with 
dreams to unravel

Michael Tor November 19, 2024 at 6:17 AM Dreams allow us to sometimes escape to beauty and wonderment, as you have written here Constance the beautiful imagery and wonderful experiences you describe resonate what I would love to do in the ocean and the visual beauties you experienced were lovely to see. Best wishes in the contest. I really enjoyed the beauty of this free verse this morning. It was a wonderful way to start the day. Thank you for the experience and hope you are trying to do well.
