If a thousand years were to seem
Mere moments of a dreaming sleep
I, a capsule on tides of time
Might drift and see and wander wide
To explore in flights of fantasy
Imagined worlds and wild things
The adventure fresh when I awake
In this now strangely altered place
The millennia a shadow light
Across my mind and across my sight
So when the future meets my eyes
It might gather up the dreaming guise
And then in fancy I would finally be
The dreamer of a lifelong dream.

Dreams are always underlying my writing. Aspirations, lifelong goals, fantasies, daydreams, nightmares … What a muse!
They are amazing, aren’t they! Especially when you can actually remember them all upon waking 😉
Thanks for visiting, and leaving your kind comment!
