Best Dreamtime Poems

I heard my name  from shadows spoke,
beyond the place called time

where thoughts begin, from deep within
where names have never been

It's there I found the driftless peace
upon the sunlit glen

far from the distant cloudless nights
where hope has never been

I felt the tears of morning dew

There are those who will not hear the siren's wail,
But will know                the wheat has turned pale.

Winds will sweep up from the south and the west,
His chorus of trees ...

after Ivan's wake, later that night while I slept,
 I had a dream..........

suddenly! I was in a parking garage below ground,
it was dark and oil-greasy, I was standing near a car,
a big old four-door

 and on the other side of the car   ...

I invented something quite peculiar
Last night
In my lucid dream

My neo commanded my allo-cortex
To prepare allusions to be downloaded
Upon returning to my physical presence 

Caught in middle-sleep, guardians of satan
Were mocking the death and resurrection
Of Jesus Christ, shouting and laughingly
Pronouncing God The Father and Jesus
The Son...

moonlight 
 wakens 
 ancient yearnings 
 in 
 my 
 soul 

 setting free my spirit 
 to 
 challenge 
 destiny 

 dreaming 
 arc's of infinity 

 fueled by the light 
 coursing the sky 

 searching  
 the 
 glimmer...

alone....

in a vast meadow,
silently counting ruby explosions
of
rare, lion's tooth orchids,
hidden
under tiny royal cloaks
of
elliptical emerald leaf canopies,
so
beautiful....

I'm
briefly
blinded...

Dreamtime: Future


I knew it once / and
 dreamed it still / to
 lie awake and wonder
 when the breeze within 
will light the torch 
that leads the way
 through broken hope / when
 simple joys evoke the
 truth / that time
 has passed as seen

RARELY IN TIME
DO WE SEE WHAT BEHOLDS

I saw her standing there, sobbing uncontrollably
in heaving spasms...her nose crimson-raw,
her whole being convulsing against the
savage memory....replayed with every beat of her heart
...and nothing I could say or do

GLIMPSES OF SPACE
DEFILED, YET BOLD

I try to become part of the...

and onward ever onward,
 all through the sleepless night, 
still searching for the other,
half of self to make it right,
but soiltuide is virtuous, 
dream-time bring her might....

Dream-time companions
Animal guides bring wisdom
Follow them to truths.

Revelations of 
the future you will behold
pay close attention.

Dream-time companions
Will never deceive, betray
The dreamer or trust....

This is the good ship Dreamtime
And she sets sail every night
Weighing anchor for her cruise
With the fading of the light.
Her passengers are all dreaming
That they are all still awake
Suffering from insomnia and waiting
For the arrival of daybreak.
Her crew are all phantoms
Spirits of the sleeping brain
Watching...

 In my dreams I wander the corridors of mind;
twisting. turning corners into dark places that 
when awake, I dare not go.
Into strange places with distorted faces;
full of ethereal spirits and ghosts.
Ghosts of mistakes, long past; errors made
on a conscious road without thought for the...

A slow funeral dirge loops through my head as I bend the reeds
of wild alley weeds in my old neighborhood, pausing to listen
to the drunken diatribes hurled by the shell of a man, 3-houses
down…praying I won’t be seen. 

Newcomers don’t often visit, the same faces...

Dream schemes play across the screen
And third eye examines them,
Ever so closely; tonight,
Another etheric flight;
Will show me new horizons
And the beings that dwell there;
The archetypes and images.

Scenes play out in colors,
Shadows weave their magic;
I am inundated.
Visiting spirits came,
Just to bid me adieu;
My guides know what...

I love you sleepyhead
I love you sleepyhead
I like to put you to bed
I love you sleepyhead

Mother knows what’s best
Mother knows what’s right
Underneath the moonlight
I love you sleepyhead 

I love you sleepy nose
Right down to your toes
I like to put you to bed
I love you sleepyhead

Mothers...
