How To Dream Poem by Tom Billsborough

How To Dream

Rating: 5.0


Now succumb to your inert
Nest of dreams, warm womb
Where you lie and need not move,
Learning to fly
In your mind's eye
Circling the moon
Or alighting upon
Some fairy realm
Peopled by sweet fantasy.
What magic we conceive
In distilling moments
Of pure silence!

You're right, Annette, and we should try to deal with them both. I don't usually have nightmares. Well, not until I look in the mirror!

Now that sounds very tempting. When I create my next Universe, you can be my Architect! Strawberry trifles growing in bushes is one possibility. I'm sure you can come up with lots more goodies. Just make sure they are all in easy reach. You know how lazy I am!
