~ I had a Dream

 

When I dozed off into a deep sleep

Curled eyelashes smiled

Cheeks blushed and

My mouth that peaceful

 

I saw a new world,

One of pink travels

Cotton visions

And surreal love

 

I had a dream

 

I walked through

Shadowed roads

Winked to silken skies

Smelled the Cherry Blossom

 

Danced in circles

Sung out loud

Faced my youth

Into deeper levels

 

I had a dream

 

Heard a violin, a Cello

And some piano notes

I touched the sky

And kissed the ground

 

Walked by the fields of hope

Resting and lying on my back

Then I smiled and smelled

My pillow

 

I must have had a dream

I think it's interesting how we are able to do anything in our dreams as opposed to real life...also see anything, touch and smell anything, go anywhere we'd like. Our minds always take us to new places or just the places we'd like to be. Our dreams are the perfect place for fantasy to take place :)

That is so true dear friend. I have each night at least 2 vivid dreams, sometimes more, and always when I am just about to wake up.... "A vivid REM sleep" this one I had the first of January... Thank you so much for your words, thoughts, and philosophy with a most interesting subject, dreaming... :)

[DoNt LoSe YoUrSeLf]

Yeah, I've had some interesting dreams lately. I don't remember quite what they were about, but I do know they took me to a new place that set me free.

Isn't that the most beautiful thing?..... :-)

[DoNt LoSe YoUrSeLf]

Yes, it really is :) Put a huge smile on my face and left me in a daze when I woke up. I was thinking about what happened and where I went all day.

You're a vivid person, I can tell you ;-)

[DoNt LoSe YoUrSeLf]

Haha, vivid?

In other terms; alive, in spirit, observation, and not afraid to let in some of your true feelings...

[Broken Soul]

Great poem! I really enjoyed the flow and feel of it as I read. For some reason the title stuck out to me, for some reason it reminds me of Martin Luther King's speech "I have a dream"

Oh indeed, now you name it, I didn't even thought about Martin... but you're right. Thanks for your refreshing review, and to give me new insights on my poem, :)

[Broken Soul]

Thanks for writing this so I could review it! ;)

Aw, you're welcome fellow writer.... I look forward to read more of you!

[Tree]

Very smooth and natural feel to the language in this, indeed very much like a dream. And I like the way you broke the poem up, the reader's eyes and mind love this because it follows your most probable form of speaking; how you intended us to hear your voice... The pause. The whisper.... The chorus of the poem "I have a dream" worked well. and that twist in the end worked well, also. Nice job here Eli

I'm honored by your words Diego :) thank you...

[Corset]

Gorgeous! Such beauty rolls through your poems, every one like a daydream by an open window.

Hey Beauty! Oh so happy you enjoyed it... thank you dearest xoxoxo

[Distant horizons]

And many more to come too, I hope. First thing I would like to say on this piece is, how strange. I was only talking of cherry blossoms to someone on here yesterday. I love their smell in the rain, but anyhoo....back to the plot.
I also think this says a lot about your dear self Elisa, as well as the hopes, dreams and wishes you have for yourself and others. How wonderful a world would it be if we all danced in circles and sang out loud. This shows a beautiful heart, and mind at play. Keep touching the sky Rlisa :-)

Oh how sweet of you dear friend, your words really move me.
It was a dream I had after New Year, when I woke up, I always have my dream diary with me when I travel or when I'm at home and special ones I write direct on paper.... That is weird, and beautiful you had a conversation with someone about the Cherry blossoms, they are my favorite trees, (the longing to Asia I hear calling now and then) the feeling of being homesick constantely or that I'm so mixed I'm born in the wrong country... you know... well, as I'm happy though with Holland. That Lorry would be maybe the one of my 3 most important wishes.... Hugs, and thank you so much my friend. X

[Distant horizons]

Maybe that is the reason you love to travel. Alittle piece of you is where you came from, just the same way you leave a piece of yourself everywhere you go.
OOH, PS...sorry for the typo, RLISA :-) How can I mistype Elisa. Only tiredness :-)

Hehe... no worries dear, I have something always with the letter "R"
as I remember me saying before I left, I guess on Robbie's page.... see? an R too :D Rlisa could be very eye-opening :P no just kidding dear.... I hope we both dream soon! and let us abduct into other worlds of beauty, (I'm a dreamer) sorry can't help it :D and yes, I do love to travel, I hope the places I come love me back xx

[Distant horizons]

I don't doubt it. Beauty remembers beauty :-)

Then I still hope dear friend you can travel next time to Italy... just mail me if you need help with places, translations anything ok... I was sad you couldn't or didn't go.... I didn't forget... :)

[Distant horizons]

I will, thank you. Only delayed, never postponed :-)

Ok good then! :) happy to hear.... you won't regret any part of it, as Schotland have secretly so much incommon with Italy :-)
