dreams…

Have them we do, yes all,

They nurture us; help us not to fall,

Into the dregs of a lesser call,

Have them we do, yes, we all…

Fantasy too we all own,

Same as dreams, but more awake we are,

When fantasy comes knocking on our door,

Let it in, I say, allowing us to believe in the lure…

Reverie, are dreams, as are nightmares, of sorts,

Fearful ones I admit, but still, like mine of ports,

Far away dreams, using only our passports,

Nightmares they come, when our stomach is out of sorts…
