Email Dreams...
Some nights I do email all night long.
Long after I have gone to sleep,
and begun to dream.
Last night was that night,
with each email more complex than the last
each problem more pressing, until
it was no longer a dream, but knocking
on Nightmare, but then..
I saw an email from you, which
always makes me feel that little excited, that
little bit of happy I feel when I see one from you, wondering,
what you have to tell me.
It was a poem.
Wise, wonderful and precise,
Every word, every phrase, every stanza.
I read it over and over, because it made such perfect sense,
and was everything I needed to hear.
Like a song you want to play over. And over.
I loved you for writing me that.
And I slept. WIth out dreams. Without email.
The only problem is, now I am awake,
I can't remember.
Not a word of it.
Can you just tell me, one more timeā¦
what you wrote?

I should not be getting this
This is virtual trash
A clutter in my mailbox
Going rabid by the moment.
I should not be getting this
But I read it all the same
If only to control, to ensure
This is not mine to claim.
I should not be getting this
And receiving it annoys me
Such a waste of my time
And digital breathing space.
I should not be getting this
And wonder how it got to me
What hiccup in the virtual server
Spewed this nonsense at me.
I should not be getting this
But I am keeping it still
As a proof of absurdity
Unwilling to trash it all the same.
This happens all the time.
may all your email
be full of love and kindness
sleep, Princess of No
Lovely!
There once was an assistant named Lorraine.
Who thought all email was a pain.
'Till one was versified,
Which made her smile while she cried.
That Fabulous assistant, Lorraine.
Not a very good tribute to some lovely poetry, but the best I could do.
I have nothing creative to say. I'm glad others are taking care of it.

What I find cool, is that *I* actually wrote a poem yesterday. I don't write poems nearly enough anymore. Must be something with the moon.
Very nice. *applause*
I sometimes have dreams about seeing my favourite singers.... they play a brand new song that is absolutely perfect....and then I wake up, the dream fades away and the song is gone forever.
Love the poem btw :-)
I have taken to keeping a dream diary by my bed because I love to have those dreams on hand weeks, months, years later. Lovely poem, Quiche.
I had a dream diary by my bed but found I rarely used it, because I had to wake up enough to write and by the time that happened the dream was gone.
*ticky box*
I love that you were able to stop/solve the nightmare within it, then write about it. :)
You must have a serious email overload to dream of them too!
Good poem, though, they are the perfect way to rechannel frustration and stress. Well. Other than Roller Derby, of course.
awww I almost always tear up when I read your blog hehe
I still remember a phrase I read in a book in a dream...
"the grapes he was eating had stained his teeth lavender, which gave his aspect the gentleness that he pretended to"
I don't know why I could retain that over all of the other things I have dreamed, but it definitely stuck with me.
Lovely!!
