DREAM BOAT

Sleep tip-toed my sinking eyes,

And made me wane into an endless slumber;

How long I dreamt, no one knew!

But it’s a trance that cast its spell.

Traversed miles and slept on Moon!

Quite so chill, I found no sleep;

There was a storm at early morn,

And by day, I found me melt!

Fancied Mars, Moon and Stars!

Across the Universe, far I find;

Fancied, shooting the Stars of night;

Lest I found, me, land on Moon!

Ups and downs, I staggered and tumbled,

Found no means to shelter in;

Had my ‘Dream Boat’ stayed for long,

I’d have reached home in time.

Length and breadth, I wandered; and

The weird trance, made me swoon;

Soon I found myself on board!

And left myself blinking in bed!

Back to bed; and back on mind,

I was bent to realize my trend;

My ‘Dream Boat’ needed, no means to fly!

But made me realize, it’s ‘Green Pastures!’

Floating free; people dare!

Nay not know, what's in store!

Make this world, a compassionate place; and

Stop fancying  'Utopian Heights'!
