When we sleep, when we dream…
We can be anything that we want
Deep and inner longing manifesting into a form…
Part of the self leaves the body when we sleep…
It becomes what we want to be
Hidden desires buried inside…out they creep
I’m the moon, everything glistens and shimmers in my light…
Playing and flirting through the clouds
My reflection in still water is the most beautiful sight…
I’m the wave surging out in the deep sea…
A giant leap and then merging back
Sometimes crashing, sometimes tranquil…always thirsty
I’m the cloud made of white whipped cream…
Wandering over Angkor, Luxor or Memphis
Each day moving to a new place of my dream…
I’m a dust particle floating in the will of the air…
That no one can see but can generate a bout of sneeze
I’m here, I’m there….I’m everywhere…
I’m a child again looking at everything with a glee…
Thirst to learn, thirst to dance
Breaking out in a gurgling laughter looking up at you innocently…
I’m the scarlet rose as dark as wine…
Each peatal as it unfolds revealing a hidden pearl
When all petals drop…become a field of grapewine
I’m the gnome with a long nose in the Faraway Tree…
Get lost in the various lands that anchor on the top
Throwing water on any intruder that comes to visit me…
So every human streams out in the nights….
Some do it even in the day to escape
They just do it in different lights…
When we sleep, when we dream…
You can be anything that you want
Deep and inner longing manifesting into a form….

How true. Indeed, all , at some time or another , loose themselves in their dreams. Very nice.
“Deep and inner longing manifesting into a form…. ” A dream well defined and the reality of dreams well portrayed…. dream on Renu and hope you fulfill every dream of yours….

A brillaint poem Renu and loved these lines :
When we sleep, when we dream…
You can be anything that you want
Deep and inner longing manifesting into a form
When we dream, is a nice and unique way to start a poem………………the poem develops when you go on to write I am blablabla…………….
The 2 stanza disconnects the first and the rest of stanza’s though it has meaning……….
The great is simply simple and beautiful…….
All stars to you…………
I am water
Sometimes solid...you can always depend on
Sometimes liquid...fits in anywhere
Sometimes vapor...ephemeral...I am there and then I am gone
Sometimes ice...but can be dissolved by fire
Sometimes swirling ....with passion
Sometimes tranquil ....with still desire
Always flowing....unaware of the destination
Sometimes vivid ....like blue sapphire
Always pure....see your reflection
Always rising ...wanting to go higher
