How come that each

And every occurrence
 
Is like a dream,
 
An optical illusion --
 
The mountain spring,
 
Long shadow of a tree,
 
A lunar eclipse,
 
The moonlit silver lane
 
On the face of a creek,
 
A morning dewdrop,
 
A flash of lightning
 
And a crashed thunderbolt
 
Stroke straight
 
Into one's broken heart.
 
 
Just in this sequence
 
We have to view them all,
 
One by one,
 
To become insightful
 
For a short while. . .
 
And this is a serious thing
 
That happens to us
 
Who read these lines
 
And who do not kid around.

Our dreams are a reflection from days events...help us to work out our problems and yes it is serious and many do not see...

Whoops! You got me there. I love to kid around. Thanks to modern science and information technology, all that beauty of illusion is clearly understood and admired for that and not its mystery.

Oh, yes! Each of the events and sights that you mention, natural sights that nature provides ARE like a dream. I see something in a dream but when I wake up, it's gone. A lightening bolt strikes and when I look again, it is gone but never forgotten, just as some dreams are never forgotten. Is life a dream within a dream? Hmmmmm.............. Thought provoking write providing fantastic imagery!!

Love ya!

Jane
