Deep Autumn Sleep

Hi all,

Today I am free styling and posting an original poem I recently penned. Hope you enjoy!

I was asleep when
The autumn winds
Blew away
The world I’d known
And the trees
They bronzed themselves
With leaves of yellow gold
One lap around the clouds
Blue sky upon my back
Ripe apple against my lips
Crunch of fallen leaves beneath me
Dreams christened in colorful sun
I drift in autumn’s spell deeply

We Dream

We dream there are
Vast worlds
In our minds
Discovered only when
We fall with sleep
Eyelids penetrate
Unnameable galaxies
Blink
And you'll float in clouds
Deep and pink
Thick as heat
Blankets of the mind
Oh let us sink deeper
Unfurling in flight
We become great thinkers
Herders of sheep
Numbered like stars
Leap
And you'll land on Mars
The sun rises
And dreams melt like dew
The remnants of night
Still stirring like stew

Lazy Sleeper

Are you the lazy sleeper
That lounges on my windowsill
Eyelids closed upon the dawn
Stirring only when the wind
Carouses you
A menace to my flowerbed
You terrorize the birds
You've made enemies
With the squirrels
The world is a bowl of yarn
And your the cat's meow
Lazy sleeper
