I dreamed a dream that tickled pink,
Exactly in the manner how you think.
Where we longed for nothing and were satisfied,
Without caring what world thinks outside.
Many a year has passed and gone,
You know and I know nothings’ been lost and everythings’ won.
Traversed many paths my friend, soon – very soon we will have the moment again.
That very moment where dream tickled pink!
The tickle’s there and colors’ changing.
Pink’s gone into new canvass of white,
Splashing the moments we’ve waited ceaselessly with no respite;
The color will probably change again, probably now to velvet,
Dream only grows big, not big a river but many many a rivulet.
Like a kaleidoscope, I let my dreams glow.
I let them flow.
Thought I smiled in my dream, surely must be a moment of bliss,
Can’t tell for sure if it was a mere hug, a loving smile or a even a gentle kiss;
It happened way so fast that I cannot remember,
All I recall is dream passed me by as if it was some sudden stranger;
I don’t think I even cared much of its color, all that recall is it felt much warmer.
This time the dream that had more of a feel to it- feeling of warmth.
It is the warmth and so will it always remain,
Flowing through the hills of our emotions – and the plain.
I know that I was only dreaming a dream,
Nonetheless, it was so tender, sublime, surreal – nothing extreme.
I assure us, we will never feel the cold – for you know I am a dreamer,
And there are many a ‘tickling pink’ dreams we have dreamt together.
The color, the warmth will continue to remain and so will the vigor.
The thought ran through in my dream,
Heard it whisper in my ears ‘If its got to be –it’s up to me.’
Some do it with vigor, some with element of ease;
I can’t help people not think whether it’s being ‘cool’ or a mere ‘fool’,
Let think the world what the way it chooses to,
We will have it our own way – the way we choose to.
Do something that’s far from mundane – something anew.
To a dreamer in you, for a dreamer in me.
Now the dreams collide,
The assuring comfort of ‘belief’ leaving us with nothing to hide.
Our dreams could be easily interpreted as a sorry story of reality-something incomplete,
It’s the same dreams we dream of begs us to be upbeat.
It’s got to be and it’s up to us, To make our lives not just a work of art but something opus.
Years passed by in a whisker,
May you always remain the way you are and I an eternal dreamer.
The dream was simple.
I stood in the dimly lit aisle waiting for the wind to pass me by,
To bring on that sweet smell – along with it a brightness of a firefly.
I whisper to my nervous self – ‘Hold on, be strong, it’s so surreal’,
It promptly answers me back ‘..everything’s natural, for real.’
I guess even if in a dream– it’s okay to be on a high.
I am on a high – a dream rampage,
A constant reminder of something to look forward to with a deep gaze.
I guess someone must have told me on at least a occasion – ‘follow you dreams’,
Looks like it’s the dreams that are doing the following.
Life’s never been beautiful so I say to me,
Realities are for real and not just likely.
Don’t care whether its ‘Nothingness ‘or ‘Being’,
I want to be dreaming.
The sky’s clear and the rugged moon’s smiling,
Probably saying to me ‘Hey,me too dreaming’.
Fireflies, probably the same ones, are all abuzz lightening up the moonlit sky,
Everything’s so fluid nothing’s austere, nothing’s dry.
I feel like a soldier on a battlefield bringing everybody down within sight-and beyond,
But not even a giant shark caged in a fishpond.
The dreams are callin, I know they are following – I got to respond.
I better get dreaming.
ceaseless is only time,
and dream has no time
laziness begots dream in some
while business bring in dream to some
bhaskarb wrote ghost a chance
dream has no chance
dream is fragile
keep up your spirits high
Dream , dream and dream
to live, hope, and aspire
to keep up your efforts
to find sth in nothingness
Being is another dream
which may not be fulfilled
search not for your identity
a dreamer is a soldier
Dreams do not have color
so its a fantasy to imagine canvas
like falling through the crevasse
Reality is in essence bypassed
See, that you reached moons in your dreams
fought along to jump over the stars
Soldier, fire your weapon now
or the time is gone
Thanks for sharing, I think I’ll read a few times to get everything that you’ve got going on! Right now, what I’ll take away is your idea of dreams following… I understand it’s up to me (I always have), yet only recently I’ve made the choice to truly let them flow and I’m enjoying the journey.
“Like a million little crossroads
Through the back streets of youth
Each time we turn a new corner
A tiny moment of truth
For so many different connections
Our separate paths might have made
With every door that we opened
Every game we played
Somehow we find each other
Through all that masquerade
Somehow we found each other
Somehow we have stayed
In a state of grace”
