“This is a wonderful day, I have never seen this one before.” Maya Angelou
Captive To A Dream
Morning arrived,
I’m not sure how,
it evolved as an interruption
of which I was ambivalent,
I was captive to a dream,
yet I wanted to rise to the day,
but, I wanted to sleep
and I wanted this dream
through which I could see myself,
could see the world where I
understood that I did not understand.

That last, prior to waking dream, can take hold. So many times I’ve not wanted to let it go. Good ending.

But I don’t understand how … is a daily refrain. You would think the day could bring something new.
