First “serious” poem. What the hell are dreams about? I woke up and wrote this. Let me know what you think!
Where do we go when we sleep?
To far away places?
Who do we meet?
In ever moving realms
Strangers who we’ll never see
On shifting moving ground
Spectrums of colours
Dream..land, seen by all…and none
Family come back with a smile
And point the road ahead
With broken hills that make no sense
Walk down old streets in dusty boots
To find my way home
Where do YOU go when you sleep?
Life is a rusty rollercoaster 
Good poem, but it’s no good asking me Vinny. I forget my dreams about 5 seconds after I wake up. Old age eh!

I can remember bits of my dreams every morning, some good, some not so good. We live another life.

I wonder, too, as the people seem so real to me.

I rarely dream, Vinny. And when I do, it’s never next week’s lottery numbers. 🤭

When my father in law was alive he had a dream about us winning 10 million on the lottery. Told me the numbers. That was about 15 years ago and we’re still waiting!

You have to be loyal to those numbers. 🤭 I still play my dad’s numbers. Not a zac

I don’t remember my dreams much any more! Only rarely. Sigh, 😉

Of late, I seem to go to a very dark place when I sleep, so I try not to sleep very much. Sigh.

The mind is a very powerful thing isn’t it. After I had covid I had terrible nightmares.

Indeed it is! I wish I knew how to corral it sometimes. I didn’t realize you had Covid! Glad you survived and I hope you are doing better?

Yeah dreams are very elusive! Yeah had covid last year. Wrote a couple of blogs about it. Nearly killed me. Brutal virus. Got something called long covid now but still alive and kicking!

I’m really glad you’re still alive and kicking! I guess the upside, if there can be said to be one, is that you’re now immune. Take care of y’self, Vinny!

I rarely remember my dreams but they tend to be distorted versions of what happened in recent weeks. A strange parallel life…
Like the poem – asking some good questions.
