In Dreams

In Dreams

Night settles its sombre tones
I lay waiting with aching bones
Limbs so weak I cannot stand
Heavy eyes
Empty hands

Waiting for the Sand Mans feet
Who softly in my room shall creep
And lay me down in lands of sleep
Where thoughts of you I long to reap

To seek
To speak
To hear your voice
In dreams it seems my only choice

Entwined within the realms conceived
Within my mind
Where you still breath

Its just utter beautiful to read Gwendoline. I love reading poems on dreams. They can be so magical and out of this world where anything is possible....obviously good is better than a bad dream but we definately need them to deal with things. Pxx omg it just rhymed lol not my intention lol. Pinned. Perfect! Pxx

P lol it’s funny when we accidentally rhyme in a comment. Our brains can’t escape it 😄 

yes I sometimes consider dreaming like defragmenting the hard drive. If you don’t do it, it gets all clogged up and we become emotionally exhausted, then we can’t cope. Just like a computer. Any way I waffle. I have so many ideas about this subject 😁 

thanks so much for the pin and fab feedback xxx 😘

Is all that we see and seem but a dream within a dream, a great poet once wrote and your beautiful and equally uplifting poem Gwen mirrors those fantastic words.
Loved reading then rereading this and your  poem and its last three lines are the stuff dreams are made of.❤️
Poetic dreams.
Thank you Gwen for writing something magical and to think about in the land of nod and what else it can happily bestow.👌
Full honours and poetry kudos to you as well and I wish you well my poetic friend.

Shaun, I loved reading your words on this. You truly embraced the poem and all it stands for. I think dreams are a powerful thing, we can control and conjure for comfort. Always such a pleasure to read your thoughts. Again thank you for giving me that precious thing called time. I am forever grateful, and truly touched by your thoughtful words 

Your friend Gwen ❤️x
