Was it a dream |

Was it a dream Once upon a restless sleep. A restive thought came out the deep. It reap behind my eyes closed numb, And stayed within my mind to steep. A shapeless shape of edgeless sight, A floating specter of the night. A forming figure standing glum, An awesome sight of random slight. Careless free as in oversee. And dressed in striking grey pongee, Sent a numb that struck me dumb And silently come at me. I tried so hard to speak, relate, With open arms commiserate. I felt my mind in warm succumb, In haunting silent patient wait. He waved me back in quiet mime And whispered me it's not your time. |

This was absolutely chilling. What a nightmare this was....or was it? **eerie,spooky music playing in the background, and a couple of rattling chains for good measure** Most excellent, Seymour! ------------------ Denise |
