Universe Of Dreams

I wandered through the soft, white wisps,
An assortment that floats along the vast, blue sky,
Stepping gracefully on each and every nimbus,
That stretch along the horizon of the bay.

Lost in thought, forever I'll stay.
Here I am jubilant, free and gay.

In my universe of dreams,
Nothing is ever as it seems.

I bathe in moonlight,
Fluttering and dancing in the breeze,
My brown hair wrapping around me,
Preventing the frosty freeze.

Beckoning me to come and glide,
I see swans swimming in the crystalline lake.
This is my land, my world of dreams,
Soon, I must leave and be awake.
