In the Forest of My Dreams

Listen to poem:

try as I may I don’t remember the forest from the trees neither surreal lands journeyed nor celestial seas I’ve navigated all faraway beyond our earthly realm no not one meant for mere mortals in the morning the slate wiped clean I have no hint of recollection a vague reminiscence of mystic travels amnesia of my rendezvous with you I can’t remember the trees from the forest of my dreams but if that’s the price to pay that’s fine that’s fair as long as I keep waking with a smile and in a haze the memory of you knowing some day my day will come and together we will be your hand in mine you’ll walk me through the forest and the trees AP: 3rd place 2021 Posted on April 12, 2021

SWEET ! CHARMING ! LOVELY ! Have not yet searched for the forest of my dreams. Wish to explore shortly. Nicely penned. You have put a new technic to start with small letter. All the best.

Thank you, Anisha ~ I don't think I can take credit for inventing anything, lol ~ I just like the lowercasing, it serves my purpose. Thanks for your lovely visit and comment.

Oh, is this ever profound, and profoundly sweet as well. Super contest entry, Line, and a FAVE for me. Thank you, Gershon

And rereading this again now, I realize that the first time it didn't even register on me why you don't remember the forests from the trees. This poem is improving with time. :) gw
