Technicolor Dreams
 
Technicolor Dreams


night falls, quiet and still,
but for a whisper as dream curtains
rise, inviting me into

technicolor visions..and I embrace
them, my painted dreamscape,
these brilliant offerings of golden

sunrises drifting so effortlessly
into pristine blue and the green
splash of renewal that quenches

my soul with freshness. . I cling
overlong to the beauty of sunset's
glow, purple and crimson blended

perfection, and I gasp as midnight's
rain claims the sky, scattering its
crystal treasures upon velvet

blankets... sighing in contentment
I pause to admire each brushstroke,
each brilliant memory laid upon

my slumbering heart before night
slips into day, before I wake
to colorless reality, and I wonder

again if this is imagination's game
or perhaps a gift that I might catch
my breath as others do... but my

time now is fleeting, dawn breaks
and the curtain falls so I must
bid farewell until I might visit again

and embrace this gift, this painted
offering, this brilliant memory...
of technicolor dreams
