Come with me, dream a dream.
Lose yourself within the cream
Of mix-matched colors in you head
Midnight Blue, bloodshot red.

Imagien that you are a knight,
Slay the dragon, end the blight,
Or that you're a feline friend
That poor gray mouse for claws to rend.

Run free with your creative self,
Be a dwarf, be an elf.
Do what you most wish to do
Make ugly pretty, make old new.

In your head are chaotic thoughts
Snowstorms in June, old battles fought
Organize, or let them go
To do as they must, free to grow.

Or simply think on what has been,
Maybe back when you were ten
And you got lost in the forest
Animals noisy--the woodland chorus.

Now come back from your sojourn,
Time to give real life a turn.
Yet recall what's in your head,
Midnight Blue, Bloodshot Red
