In My Vibrant Dream

*Past silver groves of willows weeping near a crystal stream, I move with an excitement flowing in my vibrant dream. Those colors that I take for granted in the concrete world shine brilliantly like buds of roses that have come unfurled. Ahead there is a field of daisies - wild yellow in bloom. I’m feeling golden; such enchantment whisks away all gloom. Atop a hill as bright a green as Ireland’s emerald isle - as day’s last rays of sun shine down - is where I’ll stay a while. Inside my dream appears white parchment; in my hand a quill! Across the sky there splashes splendor; all the earth grows still. A white swan’s feather dips into a hue of cobalt blue. As sky bursts crimson, I am painting all this dream for you! *Past silver groves of willows weeping is a line I borrowed from Heather Ober's "Into the Gloaming" For Richard Lamoureux's Pick a Line Any Line Poetry Contest

Wow! This is a magnificent poem. The whole poem is a masterpiece. I love it. Also, I must read Heather Ober's poem "Into the Gloaming" because that first line just blew me away. Thanks for sharing.

Excellent poetry and imagery. It certainly describes a desirable dream world. I mean, who wouldn't want to be on that hill overlooking peace and serenity? I know I would. I hope this poem is seen for what it delivers when it comes time to judge the contest. I can't imagine a better entry. Thanks for sharing and good luck Andrea. Rockman (Thanks for the flea comments too.) :-)
