Merged In Dreams: Romantic IMprov Rhyming Poetry

She deep dreamed,
and in her sleep it seemed
she felt purged
of constant worry.

In no hurry
she merged,
felt divine
as she entwined
in her dream state
with her soul mate.

And when her morning alarm
ripped her from his arms,
she waited, and lay,
and started her day
slowly,
wishing only
to hold onto feeling
what dreams were revealing.

What I Dream: Romantic IMprov Sonnet

You ask what it seems
I have in my dreams,
if we would discuss
you, me, and us.

I dream of being able to,
in all ways, impress you
and full-on woo you
and with joy and laughter pursue you.

But if you say “no”,
and give into fear,
I’ll awaken real slow,
or slip into a nightmare.

For living out full-blown, wondrous dreams
is often much harder than it seems.
