Silly little Dream
Had a silly little dream
with crustaceans dancing
and a spunky tiger named Pip
Everyone was eating candy
chocolate covered pinecones
specked with bio-green sprinkles
You were there on a silver unicycle
wearing tan leather hightop Pumas
One untied and the other with a pink lace
Our metronomes were out of tune talking
while Belle & Sebastian whispered love notes
over turntable revolutions of creak and cradle
Silly little dream jumps in time kept the beat
off balance in the way silly little dreams do
Only you, straddling uni, ran contiguously along
Every jump rendered Pip lost and found
Every bump changed pinecones to PopTarts!
But you rolled along, scene to scene, frame by frame
It was a Lilly of a thing, the dream glow manic pacing
Everything in hyper-time, except for a little silver unicycle
tan Pumas slow-mo pedaling while one pink lace floated silly
Sounds like multiple dreams all playing simultaneously – like a one-man band on a Sunday sidewalk.
Sunday sidewalks are silky. Music in themselves.
I love this! These words are wondrous!
Thank you
you’re too kind. Glad you stopped by.
Lovely. I wish my own dreams were this entertaining.
Thanks. My dreams are always fun, especially those made up in the night. Even the worst things are interesting at their core.
