Jenna Logan Poet Rhyme

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

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!

John Gondolf June 25, 2020 at 7:56 AM Beautifully written, Jenna, I love this rhyme scheme; it's similar to a Terza Rima except written in quatrains instead of tercets. Nicely done.
