When I Dream In the Day

Does he know that when I dream in the day? The earth fades past the crown of your smile A whirlwind in the reality awakened in front of my daze And all that was once silent now motion and spry As you, the ringleader for every movement’s spark In this moment when you are all that there is Steadfast in the notion of the whirlwind of breeze Reality a continuum of time traveling wake Shakes rocked and backed by the brilliant light Your presence is the universe's calm of chaotic sight For suddenly the moment is overtaken by a thought Infiltrated by your presence Unleashing upon my breast a vengeance Body shaking in a frenzies wave Caught in a dream of a distant array Until there is but a dance of shimmer through my feet Body motion endless towards the rushing energy Of the reverie happening before my eyes And suddenly my heart leaps There continues the day’s flight.

These thoughts that come to us during the day, dreams that invade can bring joy or pain or something in between. Still the fact that these thoughts appear must mean something. Nicely done Rachel.
