Dream work

you appear from the East 
into a scene of purple and red shafts of light 
that split the darkened rain burdened clouds 
as the Sun falls away 
catching a thousand eyes 
mesmerize 
 
silently gliding 
capturing the minds of child and elderly alike 
yellow beams of energy pulse as if alive 
encircle you in waves 
you pause and pull the thought from your admirers 
we see the universe for just a moment 
 
and you are gone 
 
certainly our imagination caught us twitching 
and today 
reason has resumed
