World of Dreams

I'm living in a world of dreams, but this I know.
Red numbered doors and window sills...
Dust busters and mail boxes...
...Imaginary things, dreaming things.
This I know.

A frightening thought,
Of what lay awake beneath those sheets of concrete and glass;
A virgin forest in the late summer sun. 
A million birds. You've never seen so many birds.
Where mankind sleeps in the cold.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
