Welcome are dreams,

their profound symbols

submerging then soar

like an ocean of waves,

 

breath of life – rising to

surface of subconscious,

submitting...feast upon

essence of tranquility,

 

carry the soul,

let it be free,

pleasure without

fear of suffering,

 

arriving at where there's

golden opportunities to

luxuriate, if only for

that one brief moment .

So freeing. Dreams are amazing in their ability to restore and allows us some magic. I love your words in this poem...soaring like oceans of waves, essence of tranquility....and luxuriating in golden opprtunities...I could feel it... those spirit freeing moments of dreams -

I loved this poem- it took me there and I will read it again and probably again.... smiley

One brief moment of full relaxation, with thoughts on good and peaceful things, can be so refreshing. Rhiannon

Hi Jenny

Like the others, I enjoyed reading this poem. I think most of my dreams are worrying, at least the ones I remember. I'm always lost or desperate for the loo and can't find one.

What a wonderful comment Penny. I thought that June's poetry monthly was so inspiring, there was much food for thought, which led me to write this poem.

Thank you for reading and appreciate hearing your thoughts. It made my day that you would want to come and read again.

Hi Jean,

I too have those kind of night dreams, they can be a bit unsettling, but I always find when I wake up that when I look back, it was like a kind of adventure, although it didn't seem like one at the time. I do hope you have some good dreams from now on. 

Thank you for stopping by to read, it's always good to hear from you.

you don't need to be Freud to know how important dreams are- but it helps. Nice one Jenny.

there's a definite feeling of water here - floating or on a boat - and that lovely feeling of escape that either can give you.

Hi Catherine,

hope life is treating you well in Bristol.

I was very grateful for the subject of poetry monthly for June, as it's one of my favorite topics, that is dreaming, which is what inspired me to write this. I love your interpretation of floating away in a boat without a care in the world, sounds so soothing.

Many thanks for sharing your thoughts and for letting me know, it's always good to hear from you.

I like the way the first line opens us up to the possibilities that dreams offer, like a welcome mat for the poem. I particularly enjoyed the opening stanza and the metaphor of the waves. Well done.
