Half moon swinging like a pendulous ax I ride in moment’s dreaming expanse where light doth dwell behind bright stars glancing far, time’s spell of bizarre standing high upon the shadowed side I glide as though a child, sliding falling inside the craters, out of breath cows flying skyward, I stumble in my step Floating as a feather no pain, no rain on my moon beam parade. Starlight wishing trains streaming in violent storms..All of you dreaming! Sending asteroids of confusion..Stop the Screaming! I cry out, in happy tone..I’m not alone There are others up here within the glow Chasing them round, up and down the crescent jiggle Just missing the tag man, tripping I giggle He hears you! The man on the moon, but he must sleep also! Still, I swing on night beam vines, singing alto lullabyes to babes in waiting, teaching the spoons to trill a giant leap of belief The plate falls and breaks the silence where I wake and wander through the daylight wondering if all our wishes will come true depends on the view inside of me and you. |

I think most dreams will come true if we keep pursuing them...not always in the form we look for...James |

Wow, this really kept me busy for a few minutes, rwood. I really enjoyed it. Summon the courage to step out of your familiar rut and suddenly many of those things which held you back will no longer have the power to do so. |

How lovely Regina. This is like a dancing lullaby. I'm up there on your moon beam parade with you. For I believe in wishes come true...but I'm an eternal optimist, an eternal dreamer...I like life better that way  If she who dies with the most toys wins, then can I have some toy boys please? |

Better late than never. You ask if you are weird - well do you have a spoon in your hand? The dish ran away with the spoon remember? Now you realize you have afforded me a whole new venue - writing my dreams, but you want to read weird, I got weird for you LOL. This was delightful as is your fantastic new picture. Loved the poem.~*~ Carpe' Diem ~*~ |
