Time to Dream

Alphabets
cushion the sleeper
as the books'
lullabies
sing their notes into his dreams
and birth new poems.




Inspired by The Mag and the original image called Poet's Sleep, 1989, by Chang Houg Ahn
Thanks Tess for choosing it...

  10. Poetry by osmosis?

    My poem rhymed last night, but didn't this morning. I guess the rhymes slipped away in my dreams.
