Magpie Tales 120: These Crazy Dreams

dream-scaped


I dreamt 
I flew
where sparrows 
wing,
symphony 
strings,
floral things, 

through orchard
and field my 
hunger revealed
image, images,
imagination;

my shoulder 
a burden of 
delight - moon,
light, sky 
flight, 
this night

of restless 
sleep.

  5. Your dreamscape has wonderful movement, reminiscent of the tossing and turning that happens some nights... perhaps from too much fibre consumption. I love the rhyming Rick. Thank you for sharing. =D
