Un-Locking Dreams



I close my eyes to fall asleep
singing a song, a willow weeps
transformation, love sets the scene
opening my mind while I dream

I seek a place beyond the stars
where I know you are never far
tranquility, riding moonbeams
opening my mind while I dream

I close my eyes to fall asleep
wandering into darkness deep
finding light in sky rivers gleam
opening my mind while I dream

I seek a place beyond the stars
harmony in this world of ours
soaring on a dragon it seems
opening my mind while I dream

    I liked the repeating line. Sleep does seem to involve a transformation that is mind opening through dreaming.

    Hi Truedessa - unlocking dreams that would be amazing... and if we could carry some dreams forward ... still perhaps to dream and opening my mind is the way to go - a delightful poem - cheers Hilary

    A little sleep and away you go. Dreaming as the dragon goes to and fro.

    That had a really great rhythm to it. Keep dreaming those dragon dreams.

    Sleeping wide-eyed, dreaming while wide awake, I love the way conscious and unconscious is mingled and merged in this poem.

    "I seek a place beyond the stars; harmony in this world of ours" ... ah, yes, may it be!

    I seek a place beyond the stars
    where I know you are never far

    Another beautiful piece! I don't know how you do it! But I enjoy your poems. I love falling asleep to dream. It's fascinating what the mind conjures when your eyes are closed.
