colors of the dream

tired &
hungry, you’re
home from the office
early.

you hug your
wife & realize you’ve
never been so
happy.

you water the
house plants, blushing
green just for
you.

their white
flowers brush your
fingers as they
pass.

your work is
finished now & you’re
satisfied.

the golden
vision of the
sun is

touching the
horizon & the
light

is entering your
head & filling your
brain.

you walk to the
balustrade along the
river & the smooth

reflections of the
water are coaxing you
to let
go.

pink clouds
swirling in the violet
mist

dolphins rising
from the
sea

the sky is
dreaming.

you’re ready to
enter

the colors of the
dream.
