Dreaming

Through haunting steps was I lured here

By a melody faint but clear

To this glen where fancy drifted

By the rays my sight was gifted

Peering through a portal twixt

Fae and mortal realm are mixed

With heavy eyelids did I trace

Beyond a doorway fairy laced

A land that to a sleeper seeming

Would only appear to one who's dreaming

So with a nodding head did I

Accept an invitation devised

To set aside these earthly ways

And wonts belonging to the day

For a realm where sprites aplenty

Weave a spell soaked litany

They prance and dance for my surprise

To these misty mortal eyes

And caper on until a time

For fairy bells to warning chime

The dawning of lights soon arrival

To Herald the end of dreams survival

Now all the fae folk gathered hence

Did ask a further moment whence

To linger this side of the gate

And escape their morning fate

They beckon to this dreamers eyes

And plead that for one moment more

Deny the truth which soundless lies

Beyond the bounds of dreamings door
