on the moon

0 posted 2003-06-23 05:56 AM


From a cold light I come to him
like the sun very pale when the wind blows
the Earth rises up to the heavens
and the moon bends down to peak in
while the breeze seaps through the cracks...

I find my soul lying somewhere within

I see a man as tall as the meadows
a kindness eminating from his eyes
he raises his hands and the feilds sway
the stars grow brighter as his voice rings out
the flowers listen as if his words are the water they  they can't live without
Only a moment
a breath
a heartbeat
I igsisted in that place

I fell back down to Earth
waking up in the morning
with just a memory of the mysterious man
who gazed upon me
and left me with a feeling
to believe in

(the poem based on an actual dream)

Some dreams are wonderful to describe. You have some very pictoral thoughts, there is a typo though for 'egsisted' which should be 'existed' and a line before would be  better written in two parts I condensed it to read:

"the flowers listened, absorbed his words as water
that water they can't live without"


this is just my opinion

Perhaps there was more going on here than just merely a dream...

Warm hugs,

Dreams are interesting aren't they
Thats when we can't control what goes
through our minds
