Dream On Sonnet
Karyn Indursky
Like children dreaming to be lovely doves
may thou close thy eyes and imagine flight
atop plush pink sunsets; wearing kid gloves
allow thou heart to sprout thee freedom's height.
Like children daydreaming to be a stork
dive downwards into the water to snag
to catch thou fish to eat without a fork
before giving a baby to a nag.
Like kids daydreaming to swim like whales
shut thy eyes; feel the free flowing water
transforming you to take blue ocean trails
guiding your tides like a mermaid's daughter.
So long as the days smile upon our dreams
let wishes be granted with smiles beaming.
