Finally, my tired mind was at peace
And my eyes closed,
and I was able to dream
But after falling
asleep it seemed
Like minutes, before
the alarm began to scream
Finally, my tired mind was at peace
And my eyes closed,
and I was able to dream
But after falling
asleep it seemed
Like minutes, before
the alarm began to scream
I had a very disturbing dream last night
Which I awoke from in
some distress
I was cutting carrots
with the Grim Reaper
You might say I had
been dicing with death
Everyone tells you to “live your dreams”
Well, I’m afraid I’m not so sure
As I don’t want to live my life naked
In an exam that I haven't revised for
I had a vivid dream
And you were there
Lovely as the day we
met.
I smelt your perfume
It was heavenly
A fragrance so evocative
I was intoxicated
It was blessed
Euphoria.
I felt your caress
Tender like the first
time
It was so real
My flesh tingled
The hairs on my neck
stood up.
I kissed your lips
Like I did so many times
And my heart missed a
beat
Just as it always did.
I would have stayed with
you
Forever in your
embrace
I wanted to stay
But I was dragged away
To awake in the real
world
Where you no longer
reside
And I was once again
alone
But for a short time
I had you back
Even if it was just a
dream
But what a special
dream
A priceless dream
A dream, that if I
could
I would dream again and
again
Heralding the dawn,
The first fingers of
light
Steal in through the
glass
Penetrating the gloom
Waking me from my
slumber
And stirring me from
my dreams
Which but a moment ago
Were vividly real and
tangible
Yet now are only half
remembered things
Drifting away like
mist on the breeze
Dreams are an odd part of life
Last night my
considerate wife
Woke me from my slumber
to declare
“It was so bloody unfair”
I said “what on earth
is wrong?
“What’s unfair, what’s
going on?
“The life of a sports
journalist”
She replied and she
wasn’t even pissed
Dreams are really very odd
Last night my wife sat
up and said
“Tell Lionel to stop
It’s really hurting my
head”
I enquired politely
What the hell she was
on about
“Lionel Blair is in
the wardrobe
Get the tosser out”
Now considering the
early hour
I had the patience of
Job
And softly said “Why
would he
Be in our wardrobe”?
A fare question, I
thought
She just gave me a frown
“Tap dancing you
idiot”
And then she lay back
down
Dreams are really very odd
Last night I sat up in
bed
Clutching a pillow to
my chest
And then I loudly said
“I’m off up the garden
To bury the dog”
My wife barked “You silly
sod,
We haven’t got a dog”
I dream of passion
In lustful obsession,
waking
Still unfulfilled
I want to inhabit forever
That special place
that dreams fill
That safe and cosy
place
Beneath the duvet in
Snooze Ville
Between wake and
slumber
A place that fulfils
wishes
Where lover’s hands
are held
And lips deliver
stolen kisses
A place where dreams
come true
Where loved ones live
forever
A place where all is
forgiven
And success comes with
any endeavour
Where you can embrace
forbidden lovers
Sweet moments of utter
bliss
Or be together again
with first loves
With kisses and
caresses to reminisce
I want to inhabit
forever
That special place
that Dreams fill
That safe and cosy
place
Beneath the duvet in
Snooze Ville
Try to respect those around you
And their plans and schemes
Be supportive and encouraging
No matter how strange it seems
Or how bizarre or fanciful
Never laugh at someone's dreams
People really don't have much
Everyone tells you to “live your dreams”
Well I’m afraid I’m not so sure
As I don’t want to live my life naked
In an exam that I haven't revised for
Everyone tells you to “live your dreams”
Well
I’m afraid I’m not so sure
As
I don’t want to live my life naked
In
an exam that I haven't revised for
We stumble through this life
Enduring
disappointments
Unhappiness
or misery
And
our only defense against life
Are
our dreams
Dreams
of infinite possibilities
Happiness,
joy
Being
fulfilled
Having
the perfect partner
The
perfect family
The
perfect life
But
what if
Life
is itself just a dream
And
our dreams
Glimpses
of our own realities
