The Weird Dreams...

I see the rainbow, before it rains...

And feel the droplets, before they fall...

I count the stars, which I can't see...

At home, I bring them all...

I pluck the fragrance, no flower can have

And feel the breeze, before it blows

I chase the fireflies in a dark

Whoa! And I align them in a row…

I ride on the clouds, that monsoon brings

And steal all the silver lines

I paint the sky "pink

At home, I bring their shine

I climb the mountain, upside down

And crawl inside the sea

The best music that nature can play,

My feet dance yon the lea…

I walk over the river, turbulent and wild

And swim through the lush canopy

I befriend all the terrifying beasts,

And bring in them, the intangible beauty…

I shout and jump, of elation, Yeah!

For I can do, now, what I thought I can’t!

To add this smile on the sunless face…

And this rhythm to unvoiced chant! 

No grieves to worry about, 

How happy the world seems…

I would have loved to be in,

Only if they were not the weird dreams!

Author's Note

After a long gap, I wrote a poem...
And I feel happy again :)

Reviews

[Dayran]

Its a lovely poem ... like a bear just out from hibernation ... or a person waking up to possibilities.

[jacob erin-cilberto]

i would feel happy...this is delightful and so filled with great irony and imagery..

this reminded me of one of my highs...back in the sixties...i felt i could do all these things.

nicely penned.

Seems that long gap assembled more universe and emptied it into your pen. Nothing like prose duality. The rhyming you use sounds natural and fits the images and meaning here. WEll done.

Beautiful world to be part of, even if its a dream :)

[Leslie Philibert]

Love the ABCB rhyme scheme, you have the ability to write classic, intelligent verse with skill and talent.
Great job.
