Paula Swanson Poet Verse

Hutain Dreaming

Vivid streamers in my mind,
as time came to a sudden stop.
Within my dream I can rewind,
the foreground or just the backdrop.
Upside down, back or make it drop.
The choice is mine alone it seems.
For it is my hand there atop,
the remote that channels my dreams.

Sidney Beck July 27, 2011 at 8:05 AM nice interpretation of a difficult picture ..."the remote that channels dreams" is exactly what Wordsworth was talking about in his phrase "that inward eye".....I often find that i have reinvented the wheel in poetry after i find that some famous guy wrote the same stuff 200 years ago L O L....my best wishes as always Paula
