Happy In The Arms Of The Sea Of Dreams Poem by Kevin Patrick

Happy In The Arms Of The Sea Of Dreams

Rating: 5.0


Filled a bathtub up with Cherry Cola
Plotted a mailman in from Manitoba
Then tuned a radio on to Liberace
Singing away like Pantomime Banshee

Made a breakfast of Doughnuts for a Ghost
She said "they taste fine but I don't like to mope
I prefer sprinkled not the glaze on the top"
So I made another batch just fill out her gut

Took a telescope out and looked at Mars
In search of a goldmine for chocolate bars
But I got a little loss in the Milky Way
Acquiring a taste for vanilla gamma rays

I made a drum set out of sixteen pillows
Arranging them around in a semi-circle
Got a band of Cowboys from Seattle
We were cheered by Girls in their Nirvana

Then when the day was done I went to bed
Opening the covers where I saw a Mermaid
She was swimming in a pool of ocean haze
Then I joined her beneath the vibrant waves

Happy in the arms of the sea of dreams

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
I had the first Stanza's in my head for a while, and then after some of the bad things going on in the states I thought it was needed to write light fluff
