Best Dreamt Poems
I DreamtI dreamt of blue birds
and buzzing bumble bees.
I roamed with the bison herds,
prayed with mantis on our knees,
and butterflies in the breeze.
I greeted the cheery chickadees,
dragonflies, and snowy owls.
I marveled at graceful manatees.
raucous sounds of guinea fowls,
and warblers’ velvet vowels.
I raved at ravens
dancing on a...

I Dreamt Last Night of You and MeI dreamt last night of you and me,
your lips so soft I kissed
We floated on a silken cloud,
drew rainbows on the mist
Then counted daisies in a field
and when your smile appeared
I gathered up a sweet bouquet
that whispered in your ear
Made love upon a mountain top,
the...

I Dreamt of You Last NightWe stood on the bow
of an old wooden ship.
Splashing waves; music sounds;
salty mists with each dip.
I, in a white pheasant dress;
you only in jeans.
No one else on the deck;
just us in bare feet.
Your chest, warm to my back;
wrapped in your loving arms.
Mystic waters of black;
Ocean...

Last Night I DreamtLast night I had a dream
I’d met the king and queen.
I was among the guest,
waiting to be seen.
They sat in separate rooms
and interviewed each guest,
When it was my turn,
I curtsied and begun
I spoke to only Charles
and even danced with him
Diana was there...

I Dreamt It AllI know that I shall meet a pretty someone
Somewhere in the shops across the mall;
Those that I date now I do not love at all,
The lips that I kiss now I do it all for fun;
My life is driven by dreams and fate,
My love life...

Last Night I DreamtLast night I dreamt you saw me
Really saw me for the first time
Not who you thought I should be
But the real me
I danced in front of you
Not caring what you thought
I embraced who I am instead of what I'm not
Unafraid
Unashamed
I watched you smile
I felt happy...

I Dreamt a MermaidI dreamt that I went swimming
In the deep blue sea
Along came a mermaid
Who swam right next to me
What most I remember
Is she pulled me underneath
Into a cave where it was dark
Deep, below the coral reef
She opened...

Of heart messages written on colored paper in february
and my birthday in april
of green cabbage and corned beef in march
Of hot dogs and hamburgers in may for memorial day
the beginning of summer in june
And fireworks in...

While I DreamtLong hair, coal, coiled
‘Round fingertips, bone white.
O, my diffident lover,
How I waited for that night.
When I held you as you dreamt,
And kissed your quivering lips.
When we bathed in the uncloaked moonlight,
In an everlasting eclipse.
Sky, the blankest façade
Lit by nicks of white.
I carry you...

all those past sorrows that come slithering when I close my eyes;
oh, will there be a time when sadness fades, dims and dies, I...

I Dreamti dreamt
i was a bumblebee
wild and carefree
frivolous and playful
dancing up
a summer breeze
flirting with the sun
a wanderer a drifter
tipsy drunk on perfumes
enticing and alluring
irrevocably seduced
in a sea of temptresses

Last Night I Dreamt I Saw YouLast night I dreamt I saw you standing
in a field of blue wild flowers,
it's been decades since I've seen you,
but it only felt like hours.
You were smiling at me,
that crooked smile I love,
I tried to move toward you, but
my feet were stuck in mud.
I was...

I Dreamt a DreamI dreamt of you sweet dreams
Faceless tall and proud
Approaching on your horse
In the darkness of the night
Visions of your gracefulness
Enticing me to follow you
And promise my fidelity
From here on to eternity
I know not your title or your name
But I’ll recognize you from my dreams
As I...

The Blind Who Dreamt ColorsI dreamt of the day that I could see colors.
To grasp the sublimity of color schemes,
To teleport into the colors of dreams
Oh, how colorful and meaningful life that would be!
In this plain old canvas where we exist,
They say that colors give life and...
