Poem: Sweet Dreams
This was written to the featured image on this week’s CPC Simple Sunday Picture challenge, by the Italian artist known on deviantart.com as Dolce Caramella. The title of her featured work is “Dreams With Dolphins.”
SWEET DREAMS
When Dolce Caramella and muse fell asleep,
they had no idea how far she would drift.
Out on an ocean unendingly deep,
she awoke in her bed to a fabulous gift.
For dolphins swam up to greet her in the night,
as lights from a beach lit her view of the scene.
Up in the sky a large sphere of bright white
exuded more dolphions into the sea’s green.
Dolce was delighted and bent down to greet
each one to its porpoise to bring warning news,
from good witch of south to the dreamers they meet,
to wake before west witch disturbs dreamy snooze,
by churning tsunami which soon would unseat
any sweet sleeper drifting with magical muse.
Our Dolce took heed, and on giving a kiss,
retired under covers of waterproof rhymes;
watching stars drift like balloons on the bliss
of benevolent breezes which whispered of times
when pure inspiration from mystical miss
would rescue lost souls from all wicked witch mimes.
