Colors of a Dream

Folder: 
Secular Poetry

Ice floats on the colors of a dream-

Listen to the music of the moment;

Every movement, every breath

Contributes a note, and another.

Deep within the pages of my heart

Dwell the winds of mystery,

The seas of exuberance.

The sands of Time stir

Silently upon the shores of life;

Waters calms and clear in the sun's embrace

As melodies of the spirit dance wild and free.

Leaves twirl and tumble

As laughter rings joyfully.

Mountains tall and weak

Echo the songs of the forest;

The dawn's shadowdance glows red as blood.

The colors of the spring

Sweep o'er the earth-

A warm breeze, foretellings of growth and change.

Hearts sing as sweet songbirds,

Rivers flow serenely-

The babbling brook awakened

From the deepest slumber.

Thunder roars,

Lightning crackles

As stars explode,

Creating a myriad of constellations and galaxies.

Clouds form waves of frothing foam

As rains drill melodiously

Upon leafy boughs.

Rainbows of splendor cover the earth

Filling the lofty skies.

A grassy knoll hides the face of the rising sun

As a cloud of butterflies circle and swarm,

All ensconced in the colors of a dream.
