I have donated
My eyes
While still alive,
To my dreams
Interred aeons ago…
Hereafter
Let them dream
For my sake…
This verse makes me feel like I'm in a dream. In just a few words you have managed create an entire universe. Brilliant!
I often wonder, is it that what is visual more sensual or the other way round? Thank you, Poet Alyx
What a wonderful read! The relationship between eyes and dreams is very strong. Beautifully penned.
Dreams are of two types, those bless us or dread us in our sleep and what we dream in the wakeful hours. One might think that eyes play no part in either. But they do, as Nosheen points out. Thank you Nosheen

Immense gratitude to Dear Poet Mr CN Premkumar for appreciating the poem. The comment, feels great
Without dreams we can not live. Dreams give meaning to life..--gives a purpose to live.Those eyes were dreaming and now those dreams keep you lively
Thank you Bharati, for the beautiful words. We do dream when are asleep, and in our wakeful hours too.
But more than these dreams, we need to have dreams about our future, the life ahead and should NOT allow those dreams to remain mere dreams to
