In a Dream

In a dream I shall feel
The wings of the world unfolding, and
Worlds spinning on the axis of mad journeys;
And the seas breaking turquoise, upon their rippled surface.

In the heart of the ears
I shall hear the shivering willows, dreaming their
Wood-smoke dreams, full of sap and funneled sunlight;
Pierced by light for a thousand years

And the flowers sleeping nestled in stars;
Gathered in the deep, among the wood-thrushes,
In coagulated violet forests, all shadowed and dark:
And a whispered peace barely rustles this world.

'And the seas breaking turquoise, upon their rippled surface..','In coagulated violet forests, all shadowed and dark..'Patti, I have a feeling you describe one of my best dreams from childhood.Colours of innocence explode in my mind.Thanks :)

What a simply beautiful dream to have. There are so many glorious images to swoon over. 'wings of the world unfolding'. 'seas breaking turquoise' 'shivering willows dreaming their wood-smoke dreams. Its' no good, typing them like this....... as the whole poem is packed images to die for. I love it all!
