Innocent

My dreams sway from pristine to bawdy bold,
Nocturnal dirty secrets, truth be told -
Under the blanket of the dark they gush,
The mere thought of it at dawn makes me blush.

I shuck the naughty layers of the night,
As coy chimeras dissipate by light.
I'm innocent by daytime protocols,
Till, yet again, the shady curtain falls...

Unless one was born without the stain of Original Sin, sorry, we all have these kinds of dreams. Not to have any is one's mind during waking hours is to live a decent upright life – if that's possible. / Maurice

This one teases my Imagination, Maggie, wondering what thoughts these naughty layers of the night hold.
