Power Dreams

Ashamed like a tree by the wind bent angry like the wind that did the bending neither I or my friend could remember the words in the poem we had read. On the cruelty of the assignment mulling in bed wouldn't composing be better than the parroting? But at nine decided would best go sleep and the adults obey. Astonished on awaking next day every word had surfaced to my head like interest given free by the bank or seeds sown in and next day myriads of flowers rainbow green on a carpet blown in by wind. Lumens angels of the night power dreams shine bright when the heart is asleep fears unearthing past errors reveal so history itself wouldn't repeat with warnings veiled in terror to unscramble a car crashing icy roads may predict running away from a monster may mean to returns and embrace to heal. Unrestrained by heart's fear or greed sleep walks where he wants unseen finding pieces of puzzles truth reveals only when the reason is asleep. Stars and moon shine only in the dark when the sun is asleep.
