Analysis of Dreams Of Wonder



Dreamers dream
in slumber,
with such wonder.
Of all sweet things.
One may sleep in this
slumber of wonder
with memories
of things once before.
Or of the things
we may fear.
Then wake
from once a peaceful slumber
with tired eyes
as you fall back onto the feather pillow
of soft air
you then dream a
dreamers dream of wonder
