~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Reflected gentle in the skies, Moon and stars, strolling serenely Laughing winds in shadow implies Quiet dreams dancing pristinely Listening for the chance to rouse Phantastic that might prove keenly Hidden away like the still mouse Quiet dreams dancing pristinely Dusk falls light against the spirit Mounting dreads, seldom obscenely Mighty moods, the heart can hear it Quiet dreams dancing pristinely Even the night cannot explain away Hence, feelings dark, not so meanly Nocturnal dread, filled with dismay Quiet dreams dancing pristinely Fanciful twilight falls softly Echoing musings quite sheenly Beguiling glooms, quite awfully Quiet dreams dancing pristinely

a beautiful poem about restless nights....sometimes those nocturnal dreads haunt me...with those mighty moods. Wow...! I wasn't familiar with this form of poetry, but I like it and what you did with it. Hugs and blessings to you, Sara

Regina, a beautiful poem my friend. The thoughts of a sleepless mind can often be worse than dreams.
