Sweet Dreams
Vancouver appointments and long stints in waiting rooms had some folks seeming to nap while I looked out the window and contemplated the "memories and dreams" prompt from Poets and Storytellers United, resulting in my poem below.
Although I've had my share of nightmares, I've also had dreams where I'm levitating, light as a leaf, the key player and/or observer wrapped up in vivid yet strangely vague and deliciously mysterious plots from which I don't want to wake. Perhaps you've had similar experiences. Usually, such dreams pick up on past memories or events of the day and reflect thoughts that linger in the subconscious mind. I imagine that the many people who sleep in these Vancouver highrises have had dreams that felt amazingly real. Our dream lives are so much more than a playground where we pretend.
