The Dream

             By Sir Real

I dreamed of a bird once,
Beautiful and swift.
To Starry height’s above He’d strain,
Then back down He went.
Body of the brightest white
Falling, like a star at night.
Each time a little faster,
Slowly gaining smarts.
One cloud filled day His bonds He broke,
And found-
The beginning was again.

I dreamed of a bird once,
I envied Him, so free.
But only in the natural,
His spirit I could see,
Was bound
To try, to reach, to die,
To look inside Himself.
Straining hard against the wind,
Failure meant to drown.

I dreamed of a bird once.
In this there is much truth.
I opened my eyes and raised my head,
My thoughts, they screamed, they split the night.
I saw the bird and He saw me.
I was the bird and He was me.

Beautiful and I welcome you too!
