Dream Dram

Once upon a time, I dream In the darkness and in the dim In the immaculate water; I swim In that scene no sorrow but brim The tree and the water in trim I swear! Life here is like film As the lowly chirping birds flimflam The air that greeted me is limbo-lim In this world, I see; I dream Dream it seem; dream it is, sweet dream Light comes and dream goes in mime I wanted to dream, but no more dream Once upon a time, I dream.

Bint

Bint is her name

Writing is her game

Through it she found her fame

She is not a dame

In many ways, they are much the 
same

I noticed her when she came

She cat walked and I saw her on 
that lane

Through my vision or through frame

When she became visible I saw her 
hame

Like the pure elegant seed in 
sesame

Her two dazzling eyes glows like a 
burning flame

I looked at her height and I thought 
about ramee

She came into my heart and it 
became lame

I looked at her neck and I saw 
wampumpeag

A gift from your late mother in grave

I looked at the future and it 
whispered to me some words.

" she is your wife"

And today...?
