Pantoum of my Dreams
Brilliant colors swirl around me
Mysterious shadows form in the corners
The plot of a magical dream unfolds
And I am sucked into my own imagination
Mysterious shadows form in the corners
They prowl, waiting for a chance to strike
And I as sucked into my own imagination
As they pounce at a unsuspecting victim
They prowl, waiting for a chance to strike
But I ignore the moonlight-panthers
As they pounce at a unsuspecting victim
I find the scenery changing again
But I ignore the moonlight-panthers
And the feral hyenas that laugh at the darkness
I find the scenery changing again
As I reach a shimmering pond
And the feral hyenas that laugh at the darkness
That will soon recede from my dreams
As I reach a shimmering pond
I see mermaids beneath the water’s surface
That will soon recede from my dreams
Fading into an undisturbed slumber
I see mermaids beneath the water’s surface
But their joyful song can’t be heard
Fading into an undisturbed slumber
Brilliant colors swirl around me
But their joyful song can’t be heard
The plot of a magical dream has ended
