In Deep Slumber

Missing image
I dream
of a free world
where compassionate hearts
reign supreme upon green waters
let peace be our inner sanctum within
a spark flickers any lighthouse
angels of truth seek souls
visions un-furl
I dream

    don't rictameters also measure earthquakes?

    it's not that unrealistic a dream bro... if you confine it to "your own little world". I'll live in that world.

    angels of truth seek souls... as such souls always seek angels of truth, funny how they rarely find one another.

    A beautiful dream, indeed. My dearest brother; your inner light and the goodness of your huge great really shine in this one. Perfect syllable count, and such a smooth flow. The line you chose to begin and end is wonderful, and your center line stands on it's own perfectly. An exceptional rictameter!! I love it, and you, dear man.
