Somewhere in the tangle skeins of lost years the night sky disappeared. Under hushed breath, an easy sweep of no wings, the graceful glide into dreams. To perch in leafy treetops; darting among the branches, singing out with a heart that hungers to trace the clouds in the distant sky with a curvature of flashing white. As the sun sets in a sea-green haze, there is a call, a whisper of the wild wind. “Come, fly with me.” How I ache for those nights of freedom. What have I lost, because I don’t dream of flying anymore? -Wordancer, the poet who writes to the beat of a different drummer |

WordDancer~ To dream IS to fly ... soaring among colored day-wishes~ This is wistfully beautiful and kind of sad~ An enjoyable traipse among your thoughts~ *Hugs* ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ |

it is sad when one stops dreaming. It suggests the absence of a future and a dissatisfaction with the present. As usual, your words dance across the page. the woods are lovely, dark, and deep, but I have promises to keep, and many miles to go before I sleep...Frost |

Peg, dreams are such fleeting things that disappear at the first touch of reality, perhaps it is better to not dream at all. Thanks for the comment about my dancing words Rosepetals, how lovely of you to say that! Marge, Deb, Joyce, |

wordancer; I love the poem! I often dream that I am flying and it is such a wonderful feeling, I hate to wake up! It always is at night and the night sky is marvelous! This really was a poem I could relate to. Betty Lou Hebert |
