Feathered Dream Catcher's

Within a catcher, dreams do scream feathers redeem man's sullied soul sweet dreams the goal Within their vanes they transfix each demon lick each channeling's imaginings Within the web they flutter, curs nightmare mutters beaded offerings each feather sings Poet: Debbie Guzzi Contest: Just a Minute! Date 10/20/12 *It is believed that the origin of the Native American dream catcher (or Indian dream catchers) is from the Ojibwa Chippewa tribe.

I am having a problem with an idea for this contest, but you have done a lovely poem for Nette.

I love dream catchers, Debs. My favorite verses are the first and last ones. This is a very simple form, but didn't you find it difficult to do? I find writing rhymes in such short lines to be quite hard to do!!

Like that little note at the bottom Debbi, nice to know the origin of these things that we see. Some of them are very beautiful and your descriptions are too. All the best in the contest! :)
