Dreams

Another day another try

More things to do, more time goes by.

Energy wanes, fatigue sets in

Dinner is made, and a shower begins.


Lay down exhausted, release the mind

From events of the day, from the measures of time.

Drifting eyes, lazy moves

As your body sinks into a sleepy groove.


Your mind slips, consciousness unfurls

Awareness shifts, reality submerged.

Another existence, a place with many turns 

Where heaven meets hell and subdues the burn.


You step into a land of dreams,

A unknown world, a mystery.

A world where things arn't what they seem

Uncertain thoughts, what can you believe?


A time that defies logic or reason

But seems so spot on, a reality for a season.

A season that grasps, the power within

An existence unknown, awareness that bends.


Sounds, colors, aromas and touch

Details enhanced, and details hushed.

You seem to glide, to float, no walk

Your voice is silent, you do not talk.


You look around, take in the scene

You close your eyes, smile and breathe.

The beauty you find, is so unreal

You reach out to touch, and nothing to feel.


It's like an illusion, a scene of the mind

A script that is written, by the Creator of time.

He wants you to see, that even in dreams

He controls all things, for His purpose, by His means.


You stop and pause, and look in wonder

At the beauty before you, at the lightning and the thunder.

As you gaze in awe, at the Father's hand

You bow in reverence; you kneel not stand.


Before His Presence, before His Might

Into the joy, that is His light.

You hold on tight, to what He gave

And sing a song, you praise His Name.


You slowly sink, onto the grass

That Holy Place, upon His land.

You close your eyes, and fall asleep

You sense His love, and feel His peace.


Awake into the world you know

Perception changed, deep in your soul.

And now you see things differently

Transformed your life, all from a dream.
