Dreamers She lives among the dragons, stars and unicorns The fairytale world born in her wildest dreams Of childhood wandering on the darkest nights Beneath the chill of the star-speckled moon In the dark the dragons shine their fiery red In the light the unicorn bows its silvery head She dreams the dreams she yearns to live Ascending the high, jagged mountain reaches Descending the bleakest, deepest chasms She rides the unicorn, outpacing green forests Dead set distancing the thickset woods, screams The day, the light, the shake of morning dew Lifted on breezes the silent wails of the dreamer Spinning on tiptoes across the surface of a lake Never crack the mirrors in this lingering escape Take the dreamer in one hand, bend to fate Where she dances in a stream of starlit skies Never wandering from the bending, stony path In the dark the dragons shine their fiery red In the light the unicorn bows its silvery head Darkest eyes penetrate the watching innocence Of the dreamer floating through the skies Never falling, always flying, asleep, suspended Travelling in this mystic world so shimmering Vickie Johnstone, all rights reserved
