Truth and Fantasy
: Between by Bucketlist
Free Verse Poetry Contest contest entry

Rising into popcorn clouds
Below me buildings ran away
Wind whistled past the wings

The sun lowering in sight

Streaks of purple, rose and gold
Filled my eyes with magic hues

As daylight dwindled down
Darkness spread in eerie sheets
Stars and moon on canvas bright

A cry of busy roosting birds

The Earth became a watery abyss
A dotted outline of countries far



Time in space became blurred
Melting reality with fantasy.......

A mechanical bed in motion
Surrounded by air
Sleep overcame thoughts
While time passed

Later
Clouds smiled and hurried by
Activity began
Movement disturbed the Zen
Calm became trampled by feet

As man's bird lowered down
The world became a bigger place

My journey was almost complete
