DREAM FANTASY, by                    
First Line: My sleep / follows
Last Line: That a sweet dream can never quite return.
Subject(s): Dreams; Nightmares


My sleep
follows
the mystic deep,
hazel hollows
of the night
in a silver bark --
Occidental light,
Oriental dark . . .
when it bounds away
I am left only to sigh
for it, -- hoping that the awakening day
may offer even a sleepy reply.
And when the sun begins to prowl, I learn
that a sweet dream can never quite return.
