2 Variations of a Dream
Dreams are often the subject of art and poetry.
Below are 2 variations of a beautiful dream I had on March 12, 2017
A Dream I Had
I dreamed that
He sang a song
to us
in the fields
as we worked -
a new song
every day.
We were all paid
$800 an hour,
but we delighted
in the labor
and we were
grateful to get paid.
In A Dream
He had
long brown hair
and brown eyes.
He played the guitar
and sang a new
song for us
every day
as we joyfully
tilled the soil
for $8 an hour.
