Where Dreams and Reality Collide

In a world where dreams come true,

And reality is often askew,

Where anything can happen in a wink,

It can make it really tough to think.

The students of this strange abode,

Would often find themselves in the oddest mode.

For when they dreamt, it seemed quite real,

And often left them feeling quite surreal.

One day a student dreamt of being a king,

With all the power and everything.

But when he awoke, he found to his surprise,

That everyone now saw him with starry eyes.

Another dreamed of being a cat,

With fur as soft as a doormat.

But when she woke, she found with glee,

That she now had the power to climb up a tree.

The professors were often perplexed,

For in their dreams, they were often vexed.

One dreamed he was giving a lecture,

But in reality, he was an architectural structure.

And so it went in this dreamlike place,

With a mix of reality and space.

The students learned to have fun,

With the strange twists and turns of what they'd begun.

For in this world of make-believe,

They could be whoever they wanted to be.

And though they knew it wasn't real,

It gave them all a story to tell.

So if you're ever in this dreamy land,

Just close your eyes and take a stand.

Let your mind wander and soar,

In this place where your dreams you can’t ignore.
