Slumberbashing with Raven

Teddy.15

 

My raven came to visit my dream

from the side of my bed

and whispered to me

 

when you awake

from nighttime’s slumberbash

 put on a pretty dress

and paint mascara on your eyes lash

 

take a stroll on Richmond park

in your finest pair of shoes

the day is now your follower

 and today she'll be with you  

 

smile at the other souls

and just know this

 

others see you

others see you…

 

 as you really are.

      • Teddy.15

        Awe thank you dear Parisab mascara and all. ive had one of those weeks where I couldn't do anything right, I know we all have them so I took myself to Richmond which is my last home before I came overseas if only with my imagination. I actually have had a lovely day too. 🌹

          Ah dreams
          Talking ravens and distant memories
          So much to enjoy
          Yet
          All I wonder is the colour of your finest shoes
          We see you as you really are Teddy
          A much loved friend to all here
          Keep smiling
          It's infectious

              "the day is now your follower
              and today she'll be with you"
              Loved these lines that though simple seemed so much to belong to each other like pieces of a puzzle and one piece of logic that follows another. Very nice Teddy.

              • Teddy.15

                Thank you so much dear sorrenbarret having had a few days where nothing went right I decided to put the positivity back into it, and it worked your stanza of choice is the one that I worked most hard on, thank you dear friend always see the inside. 🌹

                      Don't often do this, Teddy - quote from the poem above , but here
                      'the day is now your follower
                      and today she'll be with you'
                      somehow clicked and I will see the day slightly differently in future...

                      PS You will get 'slumberbash' into the dictionary yet....... 😊

                      • Teddy.15

                        Dear Dave, those lines mean much in this a bit of a poem about how I felt this week, my day got so much better. I'm loving the word slumberbash and I'll probably slumberbash it to death, or at least to the point that you all complain lol thank you so much for your kind encouragement. 🌹

                      • Cloie

                        • Teddy.15
