An altering of states
Chewing at the fringe of solitude
Moving deeper out of reach,
Silent in a dark beatitude
Sandstone mocking footprints on the beach

Traveling the light
Calming in myself the fray of fear
Moving to the night
Empty of the energy to tear
Shallow breaths implore, a quickening to reach

A riveting of fact
Convulsed upon the images in sleep
Piecing mirrors cracked
Lifting off constraint in slumber deep
Sifting through the hour glass tomorrow’s teach

An altering of states
Chipped away from mountains ever high
Moving to the edge of stationary slates
Looking into blackness’ pristine sigh
Summoning of spirits into oneness, a dream to breach

Unchained, the birth of dream awaits

I could see the piles of parts from realities cast off at the doorway to dreams.  Well done!  Thank you.

Sometimes...a dream can sure help make a
day a lot less hectic,  far more tolerable.
Yet,  sometimes they just don't seem to
materialize...or did they???

Nicely done K.  Pleasant Dreams!!

Kathleen,

There is always something special in each of your poems. Rereading almost a necessity to glean it all....

Enjoyed, Pat
