Sleep till dawn

Sleep till dawn

A Poem by Rodwonder
"

You know... Dreams in a Dali' world...

"

Sleep

Bring on the dreams

Well thought

To be lost from reality

Hidden will

Upon the pillows

Prop my head

For the midnight

Picture show...

 

Dance

Images so surreal

Melting flowers

On a paisley wall

Without mercy

The sharks eat away

My thoughts

My despair

From the day...

 

Rain

Cries the sky

Drips life

On a dead earth

Start a new

With the seed

One ideal

Not set in stone

From this dawn on...

Each line is exceptionally and masterfully written to create a colorful vision in my mind's eye. Marvelous dreamscape. You paint a very vivid picture, kudos!!!!!!!!!!

Very well written! I loved this one from first to last. Just beautiful..."Prop my head for the midnight picture show." What a great line! (among many). Thanks for sharing this wonder.

I often find myself anticipating my upcoming slumber in hopes that my dreams will take me to places unobtainable in real life. Scary as they may sometimes be, my dreams can add dimensions to an otherwise mundane existence. Thank you for putting this into words for me. I thoroughly enjoyed your poem and can't wait to read more. ~Lorna Lee

I love the surrealists and you have captured them brilliantly. Imagery woven in a dreamstate. Wonderful work.
