Dreams from Last Night Found Poem

Dreams from Last Night

I’ll take the dream I had last night
I’ll take it out and thaw it out,
This lovely dream I’ve frozen,
Two dreamers stand, open, gazing
Dreaming now, vastness, anew
Hung in the sky, magic, blazing
Shining snow crystals rainbowed by the sun,
Fields that are white, stained with long, cool, blue shadows,


Frozen Dream
by Shel Silverstein

I’ll take the dream I had last night
And put it in my freezer,
So someday long and far away
When I’m an old grey geezer,
I’ll take it out and thaw it out,
This lovely dream I’ve frozen,
And boil it up and sit me down
And dip my old cold toes in.

Moon Gazers
by Daniel Stuart

Stepping upward, coolness, crisp
Dreaming, wondering, sweetness this
Remembering my past, history, gone
Holding a hand, little, young
A wind-shaped tree, worn like me
The open heavens, fresh eyes to see
Dreaming now, vastness, anew
Here with Daddy, love for you
Hung in the sky, magic, blazing
Two dreamers stand, open, gazing

A Winter Ride
by Amy Lowell

Who shall declare the joy of the running!
Who shall tell of the pleasures of flight!
Springing and spurning the tufts of wild heather,
Sweeping, wide-winged, through the blue dome of light.
Everything mortal has moments immortal,
Swift and God-gifted, immeasurably bright.
So with the stretch of the white road before me,
Shining snow crystals rainbowed by the sun,
Fields that are white, stained with long, cool, blue shadows,
Strong with the strength of my horse as we run.
Joy in the touch of the wind and the sunlight!
Joy! With the vigorous earth, I am one.
