Exceptional Free verse Fragmentation : Pieces of a Dream by estory

A shadow on the wall, Outside the window Footsteps, voices, Thunder Crashing waves of the sea In a flash of lightning, Clouds racing across the sky A face In the moon Footsteps, voices, Figures running across a beach, Sinking in sand, A green wave Overtaking them A broken window in the sky, A hand reaching down from it Through rain A face in the crowd Shining Lifted up out of the ocean Author Notes This is a surreal poem, a dream poem, and the abstract, fragmented imagery is what I thought best to capture this sense of a dream that you can somewhat recall, but only in fragments. What's left is a sense of emotion; fear, tension, and hope. The struggle of life against the forces of nature, or the spiritual forces controlling nature. It was inspired by a real dream I had several years ago. estory
