Sweet Dreams

There are over a hundred ways
To say good night,
But only one real way
To say it right.

You don't have to reply,
It's quite alright,
Yet for me, I think,
This is good night.

And when you decide
From reality to flee,
Would it be so terribly difficult
To come dream with me?

To race through space?
To dine on moons?
To make the planets your plates,
And the dippers your spoons?

To go deep sea diving
With the king of the whales?
Become the courageous protagonist  
Of some fantastic tales?

Would it be so terribly difficult
To give me that time?
Would a few short adventures
Be such a crime?

I would keep you safe,
I would keep you warm.
I would first sacrifice myself
To keep you from harm.

Please consider these feelings,
As the world fades from sight,
For I think the time has finally come
To say my last good night.

But will you be here tomorrow?

Good night and sweet dreams. If you would like, you could meet me but that ancient oak of old... I will be the one with the flute and butterfly wings. But when the time comes, don't forget to wake up.

Beautiful. This makes a thousand images go into my head at once. I love the imagery you put into this. Truly good work.

You don't dream? Are you sure? I can't even imagine such a thing.

But thank you nonetheless. :glomp:

love the poem! It takes the reader into your dream and in a way, there is no other option but to close your eyes and enter your world. Oh and you have a great gallery... will be back! greetings.
