DREAMS

Dreams…delightful or dreadful in the play of odd times,

Plunging into your heart or taking away your breath.

The idea conveyed, subminimal

Making your monkey-mind chit chat.

Dreams…to follow or frown at,

Gratifying ones, spreading smiles

Premonitions, the horrendous ones!

They say follow your dreams, but I say they follow you!

For some it is ‘dream come true’

Dream it is, fret not!

Others wake up all sweaty

And still thank Thee.

Sometimes it’s all signals.

Snowballed thoughts; wavering hands

What is surreal or real anymore?

None knows, yet wanders without a clue.

Dreams…giving heaven or hell,

Dreams that you hoped never dreamt of

They say follow your dreams,

But I say they follow you!
