Dreamers Homecoming
Dreamers waiting to go home
offering a sigh of relief as their carriage comes into view
and the trials of the day fade into memories dark caverns
replaced by images more pleasing and diverse
Awake to dream
A dream is not a dream until you wake up
but many dreams remain a constant tease
flitting around memories vacant corridors
leaving the dreamer lost and ill at ease
The pictures painted melting in the sunlight
now quickly morphing into tantalizing shadows
most dreams have no meaning in the daylight
as the picture fades and fickle memory narrows
Some dreams may seek to solve a mystery
as the mood of the subconscious mind seeks out
to bring forward to the light that hidden previously
and extinguish smouldering fires of fear and doubt
Many dreams play upon your conscious mind
arousing a climate of mistrust and fear
Just laugh them all away leave them behind
Those dreams do not exist but You are here
Take your dreams hold on to all the best bits
Leave the scary and the threatening behind
Push these away treat them all as misfits
Make your dreams the warm and pleasing kind.
