turning my "breathtaking" dream note into a poem

 

 

in the beginning

a feeling of serenity

 

moving through air

floating down water

 

where am i?

what is this place?

 

a world of wonder

a movie-like fantasy

 

biblical like narnia

a planet like pandora

 

frozen in awe

i can't believe my eyes

 

a million white birds

flying in the sky

 

their wings so big

perfectly clear & magnified

 

some formed an animal

singing songs in the night

 

colossal-sized whales

a head above water

 

from underneath the sea

jumping out of the blue

 

i see a panda & polar bear

a black & white giraffe too

 

countless animals

all from noah's ark

 

on a beast i ride

it pulls out its claws

 

moving in slow motion

they begin to submerge

 

it's coming to an end

i don't want to leave

 

how beautiful it is

an experience of a lifetime

 

broken is the barrier

between heaven & earth

 

an ethereal creation

living in my dreams

 

i am a witness

in sight of a miracle

 

my vision is surreal

traveling in time

 

locked in my memory

lost in my mind
