One misty moisty morning (Inspired by Carry On Tuesday)

One misty moisty morning
I woke up from a dream
Of dolphins in blue waters
And jungles lush and green

I thought this must be special
Some deeper truth behind
A landscape so amazing
Coming from my mind

After lots and lots of thinking
And wondering all day
I came to the conclusion
There’s nothing much to say

A dream is just a dream
That much I know for sure
The ones at night are easy
The days are more obscure

How do we ever really know
If we’re awake or dreaming
It all feels real right then
Real smell, real sight, real feeling

Only after do we realise
That it was just in our mind
How do we know that NOW
is of a different kind?

  2. Dear Dani
    one in the day is more obscure.. how true... The questions about the dream, was asked by Descarte's in his pursuit to prove the 'cogito ergo sum - I think there fore I am' and one really does not know when one is dreaming or living...
    I liked this one so much..
    Thanks for sharing..
