I Dreamt

I dreamt of blue birds and buzzing bumble bees. I roamed with the bison herds, prayed with mantis on our knees, and butterflies in the breeze. I greeted the cheery chickadees, dragonflies, and snowy owls. I marveled at graceful manatees. raucous sounds of guinea fowls, and warblers’ velvet vowels. I raved at ravens dancing on a fertile field. Mice sought havens, safe shelters that red ants build in hopes from spiders to shield. I spotted rain-drenched autumn leaves in tapestries, their beauty strangely entrenched. Purple hues imbued in varying degrees, of gladiolas and sweet peas. So many perfect pleasures, many another than these. All of God’s treasures, created with love to please, arranged to calm my world with ease.
