Starry Dream

The sky is dark blue this dreamy night, But in the vast canopy only one star is winking; It beckons to my soul so I reach out with my finger, And magically stars are sprinkling and cascading. Like a waterfall of lights they swirl and twirl and dance, I am taken up in a whirlwind of bliss and delight; Then I find myself in an enchanted forest, Alone but for a beautiful unicorn horse all white. And I ride this ethereal creature all the night long, Over streams flowing and forests and valleys green; To stunning ancient places and wondrous cities, Oh sadly it is dawn and I must un-dream this dream. _______________________________ June 20, 2015 Poetry/Quantrain/Starry Dream Copyright Protected, ID 06-683-386-20 All Rights Reserved, 2021, Constance La France For the Premier contest Fantasy sponsor Mystic Rose, Judged 08/2015 Second Place

The unicorn is creature In fantasy's scene Seen in the starlight Of feminine dream An equine vessel To worlds unknown With hopes of pleasure Soon to be sown Always in white And always with wings Dreams are fulfilled And angels will sing Welcome home mortal We're glad you took ride We're happy you came Now sit by our side You wrote a good poem BW (Constance). It inspired me to write one in return. I hope it was worthy. Again. Great job. Rockman :-)

The reader is whisked away with the moment and lives the experience through your words. Very well penned, but diabetics beware ...this is very sweet. Emile.

Wonderful what the starry night will do. You have taken me on trip of nostalgia. Remember "Star light, star bright, first star I've seen tonight." I used to sit out in the back yard as a kid and recite this old poem, then have fantasies galore. Love this poem. Love, daver
