perfect! it’s national sleep week–i even posted tips about sleeping better! more sleep=more dreams=more dream poems! in fact, i have been blogging recently about dreams and night terrors and posted several poems inspired by it. the prompts look fun and i look forward to seeing what new pops up!
thanks, Tiel, for suggesting I check this out!
I’m in!

Two from me this week; this prompt inspired more than I expected:
Dreamless and Bête Noire
well, a different kind of dream

I’m excited about reading all these poems. I didn’t know it was national sleep week…did you, deb? Synchronicity….
metaphysical babies
mine is about the reality than the dream
sleep no more
Its my first visit to the site and thought I’d give it a shot…appreciate any comments.
Hello everyone,
Here is my quatrain, based on the tarot card portion of the prompt:
Three of Swords
A dream terza rima from me…
seas of dreams
I have a lot of dream-based poems. Here’s an example of one (about a year old)

But this is my most recent writing, about not writing and what it feels like to start again.

Hi art predator, bd, and laurence! Welcome. Glad you’re here.
BD – I’ll send you an email. My tries at explaing come up weird on the comment and won’t be helpful. Sometimes my Bogger make a link button works, and sometimes it doesn’t but I can send you the format and you can cut and paste.
Rose! Hello!
Christine, I had no idea it was sleep week, synchronicity indeed. Serendipity, too. Confluence? How fun is this? I should add a tag to your post for that category!
Nice to see you all here. Happy Poetry Monday.
Thanks, again, for this helpful and necessary site! I love al the extras every week and appreciate all the work involved!
Here’s mine:

Here’s mine: Dreams of Opera.
Fun prompt, Christine!
[...] is inspired by readwritepoem’s prompt of “dreams” – for other people’s work on the same topic, click here . I initially found the topic a bit difficult, because I rarely remember my dreams, but then decided [...]
This one gets mixed reactions. (Don’t mind the endless dramallama.)
One moment of happiness
Thanks, Linda! That was a nice comment to read, and I am sure everyone here appreciates it!

My dreams have been elusive lately, but the moon comes out at night, same as dreams, right?
Give Me a Moon Story
I don’t remember my dreams, which led me to this.

I thought this club was gone but I’m thrilled it isn’t. My contribution is a vision/dream that changed my life.

Not a dream poem, but my latest offering. I guess in a way it could relate to dreams because my mom believed she would reincarnate as a bird. I’ve had dreams about that before.
Two Years Since
can’t imagine how the link i left only showed my dream of a child–sweet dream that he is–and not the link to my blog!!
stange strange and stranger–dreamlike even!
try http://artpredator.wordpress.com
to check out my dream posts!
this also explains the unusual surge in my stats for this image!
this is for jillypoet because I couldn’t post comments on her blog–i’m on wordpress and she has to do somehting so none google blogger types can comment…
this is a fun read!
i know moms who still dance naked in the full moon (in the house or the deck but sometimes out in nature too! yep, you guessed it, i’m one of them!)
use the blog to write about your hopes and hears for your son. you will also find other blogs and communities to help you and support you. there’s an amazing wordpress blog by a woman in the UK with an autistic son. or start a new one which charts the new course of your life
my read write dream poem that i’m going to psot today addresses a mother’s greatest fear–the death of her child…and not having protected him/her form a threat
hope you’ll check it out–i should have it done and posted later today, Friday.
