Dreamcatcher
Stealing through the open window
The traveller of the night draws near
Gliding silent to the bedside
Bends and whispers in your ear
~
Lift your head from sleepy pillows
Come, we go to fair Arcadia
Here neath falling fronds of willow
Beside a languid, sanguine stream
A spinning wheel, to weave a dream
~
Two golden threads of cherished memories
A ribbon that tied a true loves hair
Four strands which bind desires together
Spin the twisted web with care
~
Pull aside the shadow shrouds
Hitch a ride on gossamer clouds
Travel the winding road of time
As through a thousand stars we climb
~
Here among these Elysian Fields
Of butter yellow, misty greens
Choose from all the countless pleasures
Pick the velvet rose of dreams
~
The die is caste, the choice is made
Breathe deeply from the perfumed flower
To wander through the land of wishes
Until the calling waking hour
