As your dreams blossom

under the shadow of moonrise,

like chrysanthemums eyes wide

at the first light kiss of Autumn...

I love the image of the dreams blossoming. Wonderful.

When I fall from grace in n my dreams I learn to fly into the moonlight sonata that shakes me awake . I return with a new song to sing. Sometimes sad, long, or just a ditty, then make coffee. Start day anew. Amazing what the moon can do.

"into a champion

booming with blood"

Gorgeous poem. Had to read it several times to get to the different meanings. I wonder if the ebb and flow of the lines have anything to do with seasons or the different phases of the moon?
