Safely floating in the warm enveloping arms of my chair of dreams:Adorned with glittering sequins, precious stones exuding strength,
A plethora of fabrics, each telling their own magical story,
A whispering treasure chest of possibilities, ever changing yet still familiar.
Dizzying heights of adventure as I allow my spirit to roar,
Saying farewell to that white rabbit in Wonderland, clutching its timepiece so possessively.
I drink in my dream, every colour, every sound, every touch,
A pioneer of my own truth, free I laugh out loud.
Meandering safely to the ground, I this time hold on tightly to my chair,
Must I push it back into its hidden place, away from critical eyes?
No, it will today take pride of place, an inspiration, a lesson to be learned,
A connection between the two halves of myself.
Milena
I read your poem when I awoke this morning in snowy Breckenridge, CO. It will be my "One Good Thing" to start the day. I have such a chair,too, Milena. Priceless!
ReplyDeleteOh, I love this! Especially the last verse ... a wonderful expression of claiming your power and owning control over your dreams. Really beautiful!
ReplyDeleteAnd it is snowy here too and this is the first thing I read this morning :)
