A Dream of Reality

  I had a dream short
yester night;
I saw in that
some thing of mine;
my life,
full of craze;
those sights,
them I gaze
were they of mine?

A cross junction
of love and hate;
from there a lane
leads to resting place;
the pavement there,
a heap of mud near
a plant over there,
that, my desire,
I had planted
along with you joint...


Underneath,
it was dry; there
I saw your mind
unwilling to water;
soil unsaturated
thirst not satiated,
expectations
high of mine
seen crumbled
out fallen
the desire plant
shedding dry leaves;
tear drops
water less!

My short dream thus...

Reality and dreams....and they mirror each other often...unexpectedly. Unwelcome at times. Good write.

Cheers.

Very nicely written, and with alot of depth, however ever so transparent and penned nicely as your imagery takes the familar journey once again! !
