Dream Keepers

Fay Slimm.

 

 

 

Dream Keepers.

 

Stretching and shouldering night away a sun crouches
to birth black's ousting
by one more empty circle of dark's hollowed pouches
then outs in sparkling showers.

 

Spangled with myriads of star-labour's soft serenades
of  lullaby pieces
dream-keepers experience melodies as wake favours
tunes of relaxed breathing.

 

Silvering surface shivers with night-eyes of glittery dust
sighted with doze-swift
flight each soul's winged journey while re-living mind
thoughts to those sleeping still.

 

Glimmers on vision's sighting reveal light's reception
while untrodden horizon
newly writhing in close-capped eye of inertia's frame
stirs to rouse before rising.

 

Piercing the brain time's needle regathers past threads
and remembers that more
sown seed means now-set dreams need re-collecting
in kept  memory storage.

 

Wider sighted with lethargy over, stretching follows
and night-slumber now done 
mind must hurry to open partitions between yawns
of torpidity so aliveness is won.

            What a beautiful Poem to accompany a stellar photo. 'Dream Keepers" awaken and remember their dreams. Others like me cannot remember them. To be able to recall one's saved dreams must be a wonderful reality for some.
            Your poem makes the Sun seem alive. Your "Dream Keepers" gloriously awaken slowly to the beauty of the Sunrise. It is a picture of a poem. A must have for sure. - Phil A.
