I Woke Up In A Dream

a poem by Solomon

i woke up in a dream by Solomon

Slipping in the depths of slumber, a mystic realm unfurls

A silent beckoning, with secrets softly swirled

A labyrinth of enigmatic shadows and hues

Where time and space intertwine and confuse

This dreaming world, a shroud of secrecy

Where veils part reluctantly

Revealing merest glimmers of truth

At the edge of perception, elusive and uncouth

A tranquil scene unfolds with perplexing grace

A world suffused with an enigmatic embrace

The sky bathed in an ethereal blue

The earth, vibrant in unknown hues

Birds harmonize a haunting melody on high

A symphony echoing through the living sky

Flowers nod with an air of quiet mystery

Aromatic fragrances, a tantalizing reverie

I stroll along a winding, uncertain trail

At times, a faint outline seems frail

The sun’s rays pierce through a cryptic gleam

Enveloping me in a softly perplexing dream

A fluid stream, meandering in enigmatic play

Its surface rippling, a coy display

A kaleidoscope of clouds drift on by

Unravelling secrets in an atmospheric sky

This dream, an endless, confounding sea

Of harmony, a bewildering decree

No dissonant notes or sombre hues

A symphony of perplexity, refusing to diffuse

The dream gives way to reality’s yearning

A touch of wistfulness with uncertain learning

Unspoken memories, a precious tug

A gem unpolished, from an untasted jug

And yet, the mystery lingers in the air

A whisper, calling me beyond compare

Dream and reality, twine and intertwine

Twins entwined, forever undefined

Leaving me to ponder,

The untold, the unfound still

A canopy of uncertainty

A tale of nebulous hues and mystic unities

Pensive about the myriad mysteries

In the depths of this enigmatic dreamery

A dreamland, a haven of riddle

The wellspring of my heart, an enigmatic fiddle

In a space where mystery spins its claim,

Where names escape the mystical game,

My fabled haven, a puzzle untamed,

A legend’s call, an enigma unnamed.
