Mystical Journey Poem by Meena Mustafa

In slumber as I lay
Most beautiful dream came my way

It was such a mystical night
Far from this world, the stars shone bright

I followed my dream and lost my way
Jumping through the hills and fields I say

Then came to a place I can't recall.
In the middle of the forest I entered a hall

Scared as hell, I entered the room
Saw a few faces who were lost I assume

After a pause... I asked and was told
Follow that door it will lead you she swore

I did as I was told and sat in a bus
That would take me home and the rest of us.

The mystical journey now began
Before God made this angelic clan

I sat by the window and what I saw
Hard to imagine and left me in an awe

The fields stretched far and wide
Then came the animals with great pride

From elephants to giraffes, zebras and lions
Dinosaurs that walked without any compliance

It was just the animal kingdom that stretched
And with the last deep groan my breath had fetched.
