Sweet Dreams

I close my eyes in blissful sleep 
and pray in beauty, dreams may keep 
to see the calm, yet not awake 
and banish nightly terrors sake 
In golden rivers soft sweet sigh 
as sleepily I float on by 
to grasp the strands of passing dreams 
the sleeping world's own strengthened beams 
Past columns where nymphs congregate 
to crystal arches of the gate 
I calmly pass to grasp the seal 
that broken will dreams reveal 
the softest whispers, skin caressed 
as silently my body rests 
while merrily I drift away 
in presence of sweet dreams, I stay.
