Word Poetry Challenge #15 : Dreams
Entry 1
DAYDREAMS...
Many nights she fell asleep,
And with the dawn she would break...
For wasn't a single dream that she could keep,
Which the seer didn't come to take...
Once those pale eyelids were closed,
And all pictures faded away,
Soon as her magic was exposed,
The seer comes, to cart all away...
It could be the love of another,
Or the makings of a fairytale,
The moment she turns into a dreamer,
The seer would appear, wagging his tail...
She knows not who he is,
And she knows not how he looks,
But the horror of that which he brings,
They linger, even long after he's gone...
He feeds off her every night,
But at dawn he goes away,
Oh if she could but follow my advice,
She'll find that it pays to dream by day...

Ha this is beautifully versed. I love the use of language, the rhyming and the imagery the piece evokes. Simple and sweet, I like. #bigwaves.
