i dream in words

i dream in words, may sound absurd

but they can take me anywhere i want to go

before i sleep i slowly repeat the word i will be traveling on

could be the sea, could be a tree, a boat, a bird or a plane

ask i relax the word does the rest and soon we are on our way

over hills and valleys, i am escorted to a doorway and the door opens

i am pushed out into the sky

my parachute opens and i am in Tahiti

there are people around a fire, they are roasting fish

they signal me to join them and the night is filled with dancing and song

…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

the morning sun finds me in my bed and there is sand between my toes

nice way to travel, try it

i dream in words
