The Dust Upon My Silent Dreams

 

 

 

 

 

 

Oleander-whispered lullabies

Journey on the crimson skies

In azure dreams I see her face

She’s anything but commonplace

Waltzing on my paper stairs

Every night she dances there

Earth stands still as she breathes

Nutmeg whispers in the leaves

Zinnia-scented paper screams

The dust upon my silent dreams

Eland stroll around my head

Lulling me into Wonder’s bed...

Loved the waltzing on paper stairs - just enough oddity to evoke images of wonderland. :)

So delightful to read every wee word of this delicate and proper piece of art...Sweetness personified methinks.

Provocative yet alluring! This is by far one of the best poems I've ever read! I want more of these lullabies and dreams.
