Sandcastle of Dreams

~Sand-Castle~

***relaxing medicine***

dreams of the sand
Underneath the ocean stars
Sleeping with the wind


***the beast dreams***

Mr. Sandman's bag
Romantic, like pouring rain
Seashore bash


***the world is home***

Wishing well mirage
Homeless but rich sandcastle
Ocean wave pillow


***it takes two***

Heaven passionate kiss
 hands create a mote
Drawbridge of sea shells


***hungry wings***

First class bay front seat
Seagulls land on tower
Essence of bird droll

***colliding fantasy***

Adventure hot day
Knocking beauty of the day
fantasy sunrise

     ~Sk~

A very creative and free flowing poem, Skat. It is the first poem of yours I read. I was intrigued by the Senryu form. I'm trying to read as many of the different poetic forms as possible. See which ones fit my style of writing. Much respect to all you poetesses/poets who have mastered a variety of the forms. I liked this one though. Very creative use of varying sand images. Also, ty for reading my poem "From Death to Life." Love and peace to you.

SKAT These are some creative and unique little poems. The imagery is superb and imaginative. I tried a Haiku once but couldn't do it. I am a rhymer. LOL nice job

It is a sad thing when our dreams have to get ruined by others. All we can do is watch as they crumble down around us like a falling sandcastle. But, we can always build a new one! Excellent poem, SKAT, I really enjoyed it!...Thank you for the kind comments, as always! :)
