    O Ye Dreams!

    O ye dreams
    Tread softly
    You may awake
    Me from
    Deep slumber within
    With flailing fingers
    I may try and grip
    Thy chiffon wings
    In darkness
    Hollowed by
    Nothingness...........

    O ye dreams
    Tiptoe please
    So softly
    Into my room
    Wakefulness may
    Prod me so
    To hug you
    To my heart
    Weak with desire
    Impassioned ........

    O ye dreams
    Do please stride in
    But so careworn
    With a finger on your lips
    Like a mother tucking in
    Her baby to bed
    With delicate warmth
    And care

    O ye dreams
    Petal soft dreams
    Do come in
    Do walk in
    Softly
    Though............
    like a hmmm
    Of a breeze
    Swishing past my ears

    O ye dreams
    My only dreams
    My lovely dreams
    Nestle your head
    On my downy pillows
    And sleep a wink
    By my side
    So that as I turn
    Ye embrace me
    Like a lover's arm
    In longing, linger
    On like a
    Melody of a song
    So dear
    But perhaps
    Forgotten over the years

    O ye dreams
    My sauntering dreams
    My floating clouds
    My fragile shroud
    Of joy and splendour
    O ye dreams
    Ye for ye alone I live
    I breathe, I rejoice
    I believe in
    What could happen never

    O ye dreams
    My illusive wish
    My passionate prayer
    Hope unfulfilled
    My only friend
    My soul mate sincere
    My phosphorous dreams
    My effervescent dreams
    My bubbly fizz
    My vapourous glitz
    I know you may never be there
    But oh so I wish
    You be always there
    Lining the lashes
    Swimming with lust
    In my eyes
    With loving care

    I love all the portrayal here and the value you hold on dreams and sleep...very nicely written

    The final verse was particularly original... love your use of imagery there -
    phosphorous and effervecent dreams - fantastic.

    Reminds one, if one is silly enough to have forgotten, what it feels like to be in love, and dreaming of that speical someone. Thanks for that, it actually made me feel dreamy!
