Dream fragments:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
a re-current Dream...
...DreamCurrents...electrify..
Sleep's essence lies distant from this tiny planet
you grasp, but she's gone; she dives far beneath Seas
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
but...
Dream Currants, juicy golden ecstasy,
grown in heated land...StarBlessed...
(my moistening mouth...)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Plump greenery rolls, hills dip, heights wind,
while lovers' seeds sanctify perpetual Time;
velvet Valleys shelter murmurs,
drench their Dreams in colloquial mirth;
echoes pound percussive mountains;
each sound awakens damp fallow Earth
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Sappho's lyric Seas spray colour-fountains, stir Time's Storms,
Miconias' reverent graceful leaves bend for thee, Lady; drink, spin, tease...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Sappho's silver Moon* suspends eternity in lovers' Seas
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A Gift for Lyres, for flutes in heat:
please grant us salvation from monotony
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Fragments for you.
I hope you enjoy even one image, with any of your many senses
