I hold three magic rocks, in my hand Rolling them over and over and over Leaving this reality behind, far behind ... They hover, floating there in midair Everything becomes a blur Then very very very clear I am the Dream Master and this world here Is but a mystic mystery And a wee bit ***** (odd) So, come see what I see Just close your eyes and be Here in the here and now Cosmic colorful creations Is my contribution to the world Come and dream with me! It’s simple really, I really Really mean it. Just dream a little dream With me And throw them rocks Into the void at anyone Who don’t believe me!

Dream a little dream of me...I hear the song as I read your words. This is vastly different and so creative! I enjoy watching how your mind works and pieces these powerful poems together in your unique way. I've been a fan and still am! I think your word "queer" was blocked which isn't right since it has a perfectly legit meaning. I guess it's better to ere on the side of kindness though. Xoxo

It is queer how we can't write that word in a comment but not in a poem! I especially love the alliteration you've used in "Cosmic colorful creations Is my contribution to the world Come and dream with me!" good luck in the contest:-) hugs jan xx

Silly isn't it. I wasn't sure I'd be able to even write that queer word here. Glad you picked up on it even with it blotted out. There are a lot of words like that. Even The LBGQ community must not think it a slang word if they themselves use it. Thanks for the comment.

***** dictionary meaning... different from the norm or expected, strange. Eccentric, odd. Earth is not the norm of the solar system, perhaps even unique.
