hello dwellers, drifters, & dreamers.
At last, the winter has reshaped the city. All of the rooftops are covered in blankets - blankets of glitter, and frosty white clouds. When the winter kisses the walker's brave feet, I sit beside my fire place, and watch the world through my window.
Tomorrow, I must rise early, put my feet in threads of wool, and write an exam for school. I'd much rather toss my bones and muscles in feather blankets, belonging to my bed. Or sip bubbly pop in a bubble bath. Sadly, sometimes in life, we must exist in cold weather, doing things we'd rather not be doing.

As of late, I've been practicing my banjo, with my banjo teacher, and alone. I've been eating melted cheese on salted crackers. And I've been sleeping past the morning hour. I am happy to sleep - my sleeping dreams have been equally as colorful as my day dreaming.
Last night, I dreamed I was a farmer, but my crop was on a whale of a hill. I spent the dream dragging empty buckets, the size of bathtubs, to the tip of the hill. I could see red barns in the distance, and violet flowers. It's hard to imagine the dream was less than an hour long, but it caused great wonder to my waking hours.
I've often wondered what's hidden beneath our dreams, what's lying beneath our eyelids at night. Some dreams appear as if they hold no meaning, similar to watching a moving picture. We are entertained while we drift into lands, and shapes, that don't exist while we're awake. Certainly, there's a meaning to some of the pictures we see at night. But I do believe, the purpose of dreams is a way of travel, without planes or bus fare. Dreams exist so daily wandering is a bit easier on our bellies.

As I write to you - My belly is begging for a warm bath, and my ears want to listen to the song "Mule Skinner Blues." I'm going to rest my head on a book before I drift into sleep..
Let your Thursday be filled with blushing cheeks, and happy thoughts.
Kisses !!
often times it seems like we have to do things we'd rather not be doing when the sun is out too. best wishes on your exam, & sweet dreams dear amy! may they be full of color & light.

love the 70s vibe that's going on in this outfit.. great dress!
ReplyDeleteI always wonder about dreams.. but I wonder too much... I sometimes rather be sleeping 'cause that's the place I can have anything I want and I truly feel happy.. I hate waking up.. and when I'm up I daydream often but the doze of reality always crashes that daydream reminding me it is not true, it is not real, at least not in this place... I don't know, maybe it's not healthy for me to think that way but I can't help it...
you have such a pretty blog! thanks for reading mine, i replied to you on my page but i don't know if it notifies the person or not..? but i'm lovinf what you do :) x
ReplyDeletelove your blog, love your style! ♥
