Lost In a Dream

in restless sleep my eyes fluttered candles sputtered lost in a dream enchanted night stars were agleam caught a moonbeam in my bare hands lambent glitter beyond belief in bright gold leaf oh, how it shone then came the morn I woke alone my fate bemoaned at break of dawn I stretched and sighed stifled a yawn window shades drawn and I slept on

A newbie, who has done very well on here, since joining.. may you long continue to write great poetry.. This was not really a contest, it was an opportunity to showcase your first poem and I am glad you entered. Thank you.

Welcome to the Soup, Jenna. I hope you find it a welcoming community in which to thrive! I enjoyed your poem in its gently sloping form, meter and interlaced rhyme scheme. The theme was perfect too, as I read it right after waking up! A lovely first entry ~ John

Beautifully written, Jenna, I love this rhyme scheme; it's similar to a Terza Rima except written in quatrains instead of tercets. Nicely done. Welcome to Poetry Soup. John
