Poetry Pleases: Facets Of A Dream

In this short poem Miriam McAtee conveys the strange “reality’’ of a dream.

1 Dark, dark……I am threatened
Long tunnel….propelling me on and on
Will it end? ………How will it end?.......

2 Horror awaits……evil palpitates……….
choked and terrified, but must go on.
The urge is to scream but no sound emerges

I am petrified!


3 Suddenly I float and all is serene
I hover…….there is peace and quiet around me.
Nothing now hinders or threatens
this pleasing progress.

4 I am
weightless
timeless
I wish to drift like this forever…………..bliss


5 I belong
nowhere…….
to no-one ………


6 I am

euphoric
