Whispers

Sweet dreams whispered in my ear

Sweet dreams whispered for me to hear

You love me and I never thought

This night would come and you’d draw near

Transient

All the things that stole my time
All the thoughts that filled my mind
Fantasies, desires, dreams and wants
Fluttered away like leaves in the wind
Leaving nothing behind
But time that was lost

Dreaming Dreams

My eyes are as lead
Leading me to heavens high –
Dreaming quiet dreams

Half and Half

In response to The Daily Post’s writing prompt: “Half and Half.”

An image
Appeared to me
A vision of
Sun and sea
Reflections of
Day and night
Unfilled dreams
Filling my sight

Contemplation

image

Decisions of mine
Every choice I have made
Have all led me here

A silent moment
Alone, lacking company
Contemplating me

There is no escape
Wondering what could have been
No door can I see

I long for release!
Echoes of a distant me
Dreaming silently

Delicate Threads

image

I used to think we were special
I used to think we were love
I used to think my dreams had come true
I used to think my prayers had been heard
But now I’ve learnt
My thoughts were just like threads of a spider’s web
Glistening in the sun
But as soon as it is touched
The magic that created it
Vaporises
Leaving the delicate threads
To disperse
As if nothing
Was ever there

Bubble Dreams

image

I
Blew some
Bubble
Dreams into the
Air
Thoughts
Of mine
My hopes and
Cares
And prayed
As each
Floated silently
Away from me
That one
Fragile
Vulnerable
Bubble dream
Would be carried
Gently back
To me


Inspired by an initial post of mine
Dreams as Bubbles before I had really started writing poetry:

Enchanted Dreams

image

I close my eyes and wonder
Where will I go tonight?
Will I be carried on the wings of angels
Flying me to heavens so high
Or to forests of enchanted trees
Or will I be tormented by the laughter of my enemies
As they stand on the side like a frenzied mob
Laughing while I burn
Will I be in fields of tall grass
Surrounded by scents of lush greenery
Or will I be far away
From all that I know
In mixed-up crazy lands
Where nothing makes sense at all
Will I know that there is an escape
An end to all the madness
Or will I be sucked into an endless abyss
I close my eyes
As I do every night
Praying that I will be kept safe
That my dreams will be kind
And that tomorrow
Will be kind on me too

From Sydney,
Good night xo

Solace in Dreams

image

I close my eyes inviting the dream world to claim me for its own and pray that I will be transported to a land of freedom and peace and joy and that tomorrow I may have rest

Morning Light

image

Rays of light stream through the
Window, awakening me from the
Comfort of the dream world, my
Chest tightens at the realization
Of a new day and being alive, I
Allow the birds to sing their song
As I encourage myself to breathe
