The Doorway To Dreams

************************************************************                 
              "I open the door and cross the threshold of imagination"

                                                          Here
                                                         Inside
                                                       I can see
                                                 Untamed beauty
                               A place of true hope and of perfect peace
                           A wondrous world where love conquers the hate
                                                    Refuge is found
                                                      In still night's
                                                         Within
                                                         Dreams

                                                                               Desires
                                                                               Resting
                                                                               Earnestly
                                                                               Amidst
                                                                               Midnight
                                                                               Slumbers


   Petitioned upon pillows
   Daily devotions
   Confess sleep’s supplications

Dr.Ram Mehta August 4, 2011 at 1:17 PM Very nice take on the theme of the contest, a teacher's example to follow. Chiquita

James Tate August 4, 2011 at 10:33 AM My, what a poem you have there, Chiquita. Very well done. My editor's cap suggests one small change in punctuation--If you mean "nights" to be only one make it "night's". If more than one make it "nights'". Thanks, too for your nice comments on my sleep poem.

Judy Ball August 4, 2011 at 8:44 AM WoW! What a clever presentation. Very well thought out beautiful description of everyone's dream. Sounds like a winner to me. Good luck in the contest. God Bless, JB

Jslambert Mister Roboto August 4, 2011 at 6:52 AM another killer poem. I am going to read all of your posted poems. gimme a cpl days. don't get frustrated if a ton of people do not read your stuff. A lot of this site has to do with who comments on who. I wish people would be truthful. It's hard to win contest if you don't sit on this site for 6 hrs a day and shove compliments down ppls throats. Well, I'm not down with that. BUT, I will tell you that I deal with writers on a daily basis, and you have RAW talent. Keep em' coming.

Kurt Vella Petroni August 4, 2011 at 4:27 AM wow, deep indeed.

Joanna Davis August 4, 2011 at 3:14 AM Awesome…I’m amazed at your perception and clarity of expression

David Bailey August 4, 2011 at 1:15 AM Wow, that is really good. Makes you think bout the beauty of a dream.
