A hazy familiar abstraction.... Like a decoupage painting Designed as a distraction Like watching you dreaming... Mesmerized by a wistful whiff of Melancholy and underlying yearning for the joy of a blossoming aliveness. You, a relay of impressionist painter Claude Monet All while in the deep end of steep sleep; I was transfixed and transported in your succoring still, Even if for a sparkly shine of a firefly Nestled in the arms of the numbing night, Like the brevity of life itself...beautifully rendered Even if only in your dream state; Until daylight swallows the night And dreams come AWAKE!
