When Dreams Collide

I entered my dream amidst a lavender grassy plain I realised looking up that the skies are not the same Orange to yellow patterns as if in cotton wool collage Blood red horizons in compass as I view my dreams mirage A noise captures my ears as I turn to view from where Upon an orangey maned zebra, what I see leaves me stare She, with Tiger stripes and naked, breasted so heavenly To the cotton clouds she looks, with a raven so beautifully My mind now hears cloven hooves, as if beating on the ground Now many approach from distance, floating, now I'm in surround The skies begin to darken, blood red horizons seen before So surreal amidst this lavender, through an alternate back door Whilst the raven gently hovers she turns her eyes to me In complexed look of amaze, I think what does she see Written 7/27/2011 4:26:00 PM

Your first line captures, your last line makes me ponder. What more can we ask from poetry than to be stimulated in such a way, beautiful poem James.
