She Dreams 91A9992
She Dreams
Bathed in light of a warm September sun
She dreams of salmon running a river’s incoming tide
Her head supported by a formidable driftwood bench
She envisions the tender, succulent shoots of beach pea covering the cool sand
And an abundance of summer berries, be they blue, salmon, or raspberries
Covering the woodland floor
Sedge flats offering lush green grasses for consumption and comfort
And her young daughter laysing snuggly at her side
She is deep in slumber
So deep is her torpor
That the patter of human feet and click of a shutter
Bring no more than a briefly furrowed brow
A soft, cool breeze and the sounds of an ocean
Comfort her as she sleeps
