Your dreams are my wishes,
formed into sentences,
like four-cornered hats,
and bakery windows,
like riding a wild elephant
through mad jungles,
their vines overtaking
our legs and our arms,
and we let them,
because it feels
so
good.
Your words are my prophecies,
lined with trap doors and
looking glasses,
painted eggs and
witch brooms,
I can taste them and they are
my destiny,
raspberries and goat cheese.
Formalities are a lost art
for us.
We love from the start.

shrinks arent cheap 
wow so beautiful
thank you so much
every poem is beautiful what to say no words
your reactions are what is beautiful.
you please dont read mt poems
they are linguistically substandard
oh, stop that. I’ve already read them and I like them : )
I mean the language, the problem with me is I cant express although the thought is nice I cant put it in proper words like you and other people
in my local language it is okay for me
I am from Mumbai, India
Well, your english is lovely. I wish I could write in other languages.
Fantastic, very playful! 😀
thank you!
my favorite of your poems… such wild, beautiful, and vivid imagery. a magical journey.
i’m so glad, thank you
loved it … xx
i’m glad : )
I’m finding that I am looking forward to reading your daily poems. (I have you bookmarked.)
So sweet, thank you! I feel the same about yours.
Just out of curiosity, do you make any changes in your work after it’s posted?
After? No. I haven’t yet anyway. Sometimes I’ve wanted to, but i’ve always left well enough alone.
One the my favorites that you’ve written.
Wow, that means a lot, thanks.
Active description. Took me to and fro, and by the end of the trip, I understood better. Nice one Shrink.
Thank you : )
Really like this poem. It really reminds me of my best friend and I. Eccentric and kind of mad like Alice in Wonderland. And one time, visiting our college and staying at a bed and breakfast with other friends, the owners served us a huge spring-mix garden salad with – you wouldn’t believe – raspberries and goat cheese. And yes, it is an amazing combination. The goat cheese so creamy cold next to the sweet berries 🙂 Needless to say, I connected with this poem! I dig it.
thanks! I’m so glad you liked it and related to it. the world needs more wonderlands 🙂
details, juxtapositions that simply leave me smiling (as in the already mentioned raspberries and goat cheese LOL) and just a great use of concrete visuals … loved it!
thank you!
You nailed it again. This is one of my favourites.
I’m glad you liked it!
Grabbed me with the first line. Such a wild elephant ride. Wonderful!
Thank you, I still feel so honored that you read and like my work.
…likewise, Shrinks.
four-cornered hats
and bakery windows
Brilliant.
thanks, John : )
I will be honest with you,
I’ve never had raspberries and goat cheese before. 😉
yummy : )
I will definately try it though after that ringing endorsement!!
Love this, it brings a kind of inner glow to the reader..lovely! 🙂
That’s so sweet, thank you.
It reminds me of an enchanted story with the unknown ending. I like it!
unknown endings are the best ones : )
Destiny…
Te quiero para siempre.
Lo sé, siempre y para siempre.
