In The Bright Nursery Of Dreams. Poem by DM W

In The Bright Nursery Of Dreams.

Rating: 5.0


In the bright nursery of dreams,
Smatterings of pink, white and blue worlds,
Whirl around in the child's mind and
Recline in sweet lullabies of sleep.
Illusions blend into the real.
Light emerges from torn toy boxes.
The sun has departed and now
Delicate moon beams form arabesques.
Fluffy pillows, balloons and kites
Are juxtaposed with the bleak night skies
Small explosions of paper stars,
Far beyond the fading horizon.
Perfumed winds are blowing gently
In gardens spawned from fairy tales,
As ghosts emerge from the dying
Embers of fire sides in mid winter.

In The Bright Nursery Of Dreams.

I was in your neighbourhood Dominic revisiting your fine poem and bestowed another 10 on it for it more than deserved it.

Wow! This is why Dominic I choose to read you. For sheer poetry great quality and ethereal imagery you sir a breed apart. So rare on this site when new poems have that impact on the reader. A well deserved 10++ but after reading your poem it should be double. Many, many thanks Dominic for your unique poem that enchantingly hits home for me in many different ways. Take care.
