Hello Allison:
This is a delightful free verse poem and I so agree with you. I try to remember and write down my dreams. Sometimes I wake up with the solution to a problem that I have worked on all day. Thanks for sharing and good luck in this contest.
Wishing you the best.

Thank you for the review, I'm glad you can relate!
Comment from Bollie
The visions of dreams, what a great concept for a poem. The idea creates so much room for the imagination to flourish and you took complete advantage of that. This is a really great poem, keep up the good work.

This is a nice poem. I can really relate to it, as I have several dreams each night and usually remember them. I do dream in color as well. And, like you, I recollect dreams from my childhood! Well done.

Comment from F. Wehr3
I thought this was a very vivid scene, and it made my imagination run wild. I especially like how you drew it all together in the end.
One suggestion, I must preface by saying I know nothing about poetry. You use eye at the end of two sentences close together.
Overall, good job! Best of luck in the contest.
Take care,
Russell

Thank you! I'll have to take a look at that!
Comment from Cynthia1
Your poem takes me to a place that I do not often visit. You make dreams seem so real! I really like all the examples that you use and the idea of color! Isn't it a bit rare to have technicolor dreams? Must be heavenly! Your last line is great- "it all seems so real."

I don't know, I've always had very vivid, crazy dreams! Thank you for the review!
Comment from Sandra du Plessis
A very well-written free verse poem. Our dreams can take us to places where we will never get to in real life in our lifetimes. You can travel the world without costing you anything.

The Shaman's Song...do you know it? This gift is to go there...pick up the truth...bring it back to your people...paint it...dance it...dream it...
We change what we can imagine...It is a powerful thing...explore it...a little at a time...
Fantastic poem and descriptions...Good work.

Comment from royowen
Ah, if only! The imagination is a wondrous thing, without it, no world's could be conquered, no stories would be writ, space would never be spanned. I would never have been able to build castles in the air, rule magic lands. An inspirational free verse that stirs the imagination, articulate, descripivey image bearing an elegant and purposeful work, a really good entry in this contest. Well done, blessings, Roy

I've always had a big imagination, it usually helps me with my worrying but at least with writing I can put it to better use! Thanks for the review!

You're absolutely correct Allison well done
Comment from Dean Kuch
I have a journal I keep right beside my bed, Allison. Whenever I have a dream that I can recall, or a particularly bad dream (I suffer from adult night terrors) awakens me in the middle of the night, I switch on the bedside lamp, grab my journal, and start recording all of the details.
It makes for some interesting poetry sometimes, just as this lovely and expressive little free verse jewel by you seemed very interesting to me.
Nice writing, well composed poem.
Dream big...

I need to do that more faithfully! I have night terrors also, not many, I usually have massive ones if I've just come home from the hospital. Thanks for the review!

It helps to get it out of your head and on to paper. Kinda purges the soul, ya know?
You're welcome!

Comment from Marykelly
The message I get from this poem is the fact that time and space don't exist in the world of dreams so the dreamer has more power over events that appear in the dream world than in the real world. I guess the caution is always don't get too comfortable in the dream world.

That is a very interesting interpretation, thank you for the review!

Did I miss the meaning completely?
-
Oh no, not completely, there was no warning, just that you can go anywhere, see anyone since its a world you create!

I like poems that have more than one dimension. nice job
