Dreams


I fell asleep and dreamed a dream With vivid, bright, familiar scenes And someone new, I knew before But I'm unsure just what this means - I burst awake, with pounding pulse Just what was done? Just what was told? My ears intent to hear a noise My breath is quick, my skin is cold - I lay back down to catch a wink I try and try, then think and think I don't know what: I'm out of sync! I'm going nuts; I'm on the brink - I'll sleep again, to try to bring That fleeting dream, or anything Into my mind, and see again The vivid scene to which I cling - by David C Rogers

David grew up in Mexico. He brings a unique perspective to life in rural Michigan. Most of his poems are written spontaneously, as things catch his attention or humor him. Some of his pieces are lighthearted while others broach deeper subjects. Coffee, DIY projects, and writing are his passion. Most his poems are structured, but he does enjoy writing free verse writing from time to time.
