Last Night’s Whisper
[of What Dreams Might Come]

It often happens in fan’s cool
Where I feel rain, or cooler climes
In my dreaming dreams

In my dreaming dreams
I am awake amid quake and shudder
When they startle me aware

When they startle me aware
I am grasping at straws, should I start
Again, or will again lead me too far?

Will I be led too far, like last night
When I rode some mushroomed
Shaped vehicle promoted
By weight only, when weight alone swept me
Along a icy patch of road,
And my own weight allowed me
Guidance, then clearance,
when suddenly,
any clearance was crowded
And a snow covered cliff loomed left,

I leaned to my right at the precipice,
And saw as I could under the mushroom
Pit of guidance, that I might fall onto
Roof tops or trees, or even a glen, when
At once the vehicle of my ride slowed
Mid air, when I thought it was lowering

But then the drop began
And for a moment I feared,
Then vision seemed to clear in the
Bottom of blackened cliffs as I felt
The fall, and then I calmed, and
Never shuddered

For the Love that would take me
Whole.

[FYI - it need not be said,
but I will here, for clarity =
I don't do drugs, never have done
drugs, but the vehicle described above
was of a "mushroom" shape, period.
Thank you.]

Loved this and felt as if I was on some tilt-a-wheel, spinning ride.  

And loved the "FYI" too.

Well, it was an UFO of course, dear Karilea! And LOVE is all there is and the salvation, the eternal life, that cannot crash into pieces, though we fear it might happen, but that is an illusion.

The abyss in dreams just strengthens our trust in our flying abilities ... and we fly with unseen wings, sustained by the breath of Love.

This is a most captivating write. It contains the soul sound.

Love,
Margherita

That was quite a dream, Sunny..
I enjoyed riding along.

You don't have to do drugs to get into the other world, that some of them expose..When you become a poet warrier, the strength of your words explain how you have captured life in the ink of your pen..

The type of words I speak of are very well displayed by the ink stains on this page.

My goodness.  My dreams are paltry things, and never offer adventure at all.  I think I'll borrow yours.
