Dreaming Of A Thing

 
    "Sing a swooping song." says a wing
  to a rose whose
          fragrance knows no
    dimensions
           
            sitting still in between
        the
          black of the
              permanent looming trees

  their ideas together are
      always soft
                   
              and
        never
                    thirsty,

              and
              mysteriously
                              quiet

especially when
everything else
              is
        carefully learning
  how to
whisper brightness in
        it's sleep.

It's been soooo long...random words have been inhaled by my eyesandbrain which lead to things like this..I feel the same..but also very different.

    This is quite nice. I like the little bit of rhyme you have, and nature speaking, knowing, learning. Interesting set up as well. Compliments.

    It does remind you of a falling effect. The words flow together nicely too I thought.

    beautiful

    Very nice imagery. Both the words and the format remind me of falling, trickling water. Reading this poem is like watching a child sleeping. You wonder how a being so innocent could exist in this world as you gaze upon its face. Good work.

    magical

    I love the title..it is very abstract and I like that....love the line ..whose fragrance knows no dimensions..that made me think for a while....i found a quiet magic in the words you wrote ..a special weaving of a story....

    What to say? Strange, arcane, esoteric, a jumble of nifty sounds, something like the birds and the wind in the tress themselves, albiet with much less meaning...
