Collar me a dreamer






In the dewy mist of early morn'
When footsteps are remembered,
I'll collar me a dreamer.
Singing a tune so haunting
That he can't get it out of his wings
A snatch of beautiful notes
Caught in the net of the soul.







Author notes

musing with the dragonflies... ever heard them sing?

    Hmm... I like it.
    Ha, gotta love those simple/stupid comments...
    At first it felt a little 'dropped off' in the last few lines, but I read it a couple more times, at a different pace, and it was fine.

    These lines themselves are amazing:

    "Singing a tune so haunting
    That he can't get it out of his wings"


    Sorry I haven't been a very faithful reader. Been going insane with relationships, and work, and school, and a band. Soooo, I think I have fair excuse. I'll try to be better about it though.

    Thi is different for you - sorry I haven't replied to your message, usual excuse, busy busy busy. Will do though.

    I liked this, not as free and a litle more self aware perhaps, but good, you did well here.

      no problem.
      you're right. i felt compelled to write something but couldn't get into a flow.
      moving stuff and unpacking boxes have stunted my creativity.
      reading this again...ick... it needs to be rewritten.

    This is a lovely poem! I really like the word choices and the beautiful imagery they evoke!

    Love the last line poet!
