  • NOBLE POETRY  

  • DREAMS..

     

    Relaxing with nightcap before I go to bed,
    Accompanied by images, trapped within my head,
    Travelling through a dreamland, visions of the mind,
    To old familiar places, long since left behind.
    ….
    Though I recognise them, all appear so strange,
    I look around for people, but no one is in range,
    Shadows in the distance, suggest some one is there,
    But when I move in closer, they seem to disappear.
    ….
    Sliding down a rainbow, to a land unknown,
    Greeted by a Fairy Queen, sitting on her throne,
    All seems so surreal, I know this can’t be true,
    Pixies who are friendly, offer me a brew.
    ….
    Travel to the future, things which lie ahead,
    All which I can witness, fills me full of dread,
    The earth is in destruction, their is no form of life,
    Oceans have reclaimed the land, disease is running rife.
    ….
    Step back into dreamland, visions of the mind,
    Are these merely fantasies, which we leave behind,
    Signs of armageddon, friendships we have lost,
    Ignoring Mother Nature…. may prove our final cost….
