As I drift deeply into slumber
I surrender to my dreams
I enter the gateway to paradise
Where nothing is what it seems

I cast out my dreams and wishes
As I sail on clouds of white
These soft and silky pillows
Take me far into the night

I rub my eyes in disbelief
As they reveal a sweet surprise
For the man of my dreams
Is standing right before my eyes

I feel your warm embrace
And the tenderness of your kiss
Your love takes me towards heaven
As we share moments of pure bliss

We catch a shooting star
And hope our wishes all come true
But my wish has been granted
Because all I want is you

This night is all but over
And so is this magical fantasy
We bid 'adieu' to one another
As you sail away from me

So I drift on towards the morrow
As dawn brings her morning light
With an abundance of inspiration
I will take my pen and write

I am in motion
I am blue
Love is an ocean
I'm anchored in you

Ah, devine inspiration for a romantic write- what sweet dreams.

Happiness isn't something that happens to you, it's created from within you. Joy is a state of mind.

Sue,

What wonderful dreams you have there! I think this is a dream I have every night... hahaa... That's the reason why I put a dreamcatcher nearby. It's so that I might be able to trap this dream lover, before he makes a run for it in the morning...
