Dreamless dreams

Dreamless dreams like a midnight breeze,
they do not exist between my sheets,
I stumble from one place onto another,
never knowing what or who I'll encounter.

I drink some ale with elves so enchanting,
drunken I spin around, singing and ranting,
stumbling back and then stumbling forth,
then loosing direction, where is north?

I bounce into someone that I hold dear,
she entices my mind, and caresses my ear,
mesmerized I feel I fly in the breeze,
then falling, until I land on my knees.

I wake up suddenly, my heart beating wildly,
gasping, then yawning, remembering mildly,
and forgetting all dreams a second before,
I fall asleep and start dreaming some more.

Geir Jakobsen (C) 2000

Loved this! Good work FlyHigh!

I'm grabbing my hat and coat
I'm leaving the cat a note
Quick call me a ferry boat-getting out of town!
