Traveller

Her feet move while she sleeps
In gentle heel toe patterns
Escaping the bottom of the duvet

She’s walking in heels
Slowly
Inhaling Italian Lavender
Her tongue quietly clicks to the
Tap Tap Tap
Of her shoes on the hot pier

Upon waking only the gentle 
Canal’s trickle remains
Spilling across her cheek
And resting at the corner of her lips

A little sad, but quite enduring poem !! So enjoy dream poems...they can take you to places beyond our reach. Into our hopes and desires !!
