A Change of Dream(ery), Even for One Night
Wonderland Poetry Prompt Challenge Day 13
Martin Luther had a dream,
The world came to adore.
Fleetwood Mac sang about dreams,
A great hit song for sure.
I myself have many dreams,
And I hope to have a few more.
&&&&
But would it kill the maker of the dreams,
To give me something that I enjoy?
Instead of waking up at night haunted by extremes?
I have dreamt about big spiders and about long snakes,
Can’t you change my nightly dreams,
So I don’t wake up in a shock in the middle of the night?
&&&&
I want to fall in love in some of my dreams,
To a lady who is gentle and is a sheer delight.
I want to wake up happy, where all is as it seems,
A dream that will make me smile all through the night,
So, Mr Dream maker, can’t you give me a sweet dream?
Even just for one night?
&&&&
Till next time,
Calvin
