Dream! ! Poem by Stephanie Moore

I lay softly down in my bed
And next thing you know I am awake
I am getting ready to walk out the door

I gently open it so I dont wake anyone
I walk outside and then I am surrounded by many flawless flowers
With so many colors, pink, yellow, black
Orange, blue, purple, and white

But of course my most favorite is red
Without even blinking so I dont wake up
I turned around and there stood a boy
He looked sweet and innocent

As he walks toward me he then reached behind me
Without even thinking I seen a red rose from the corner of my eye
Next thing you know it was then in front of me

I go to grab it and then pricked my finger on the thorn
I woke up
But it wasn't that, that had stopped my breath it was
The rose lying next to me on my pillow and my finger all bandaged up

I didnt know if I was still dreaming
Or had it been a memory from my past.
