And then in come the dreams.
Walking like they own the place,
gowns flowing like rippling
moonbeams embracing
the dense atmosphere,
and I'm on my knees.
A devout worshipper
at their alter. Prayer book in hand,
calling for the moon and stars
to wash my skin clean of
the dirt of the land.
I welcome them
to pour over
my skin,
liquid warmth,
in a place
where the air is
biting and thin.
I embrace, the chase,
the flirtatious embrace
of images dancing
a striptease.
My visions seeing pieces
unpeeled, then disrobing,
dropping clothing,
beckoning me to give in,
to follow deeper
into temptation.
Devour the fruit
of nights lusty contemplation.
I am awestruck, by the swirl
of a dream brook, as my mind
opens another page
of my imagination book.
As their all-seeing eye
takes in the view in a single look
and pulls me close,
To breathe life into lungs
that only want to doze.
Softly placing lips upon my own.
That sweet soft syrupy kiss of
the night, and she spoke,
saying sleep tight.
We will keep you warm,
safe and sound tonight.
