Description The sky is splashed
With purple and red
As I pound my fist
Against my head

My mind’s eye isn’t seeing
My imagination is dry
Images are fuzzy
And the words are all shy

The sun has finally set
Beyond the horizon in the west
I’ve wrung out my brain for an idea
But not one has seemed my best

So I close my eyes
Lay down to sleep
Submerge myself
In dreams so deep

Images swirl and dance
Parading in my mind
Words run around after
Not wanting to be left behind

Subconscious recedes
As I rise from my bed
A brand new idea
Fresh in my head

I grab pencil and paper
Before the plot fades
I jot down the story
Remembering it through the haze

Words flow from my mind
Easily as a stream
Can you believe all this came
From one simple dream?

The sun is finally rising
Towards the horizon in the west
I wrung out my brain for an idea
And this one is my best
