Dream

    The Sleeping Gypsy by Henri Rousseau

Pull another dream from your jar
my Bohemian love.
Are you naked?
Flying?  
Chased by wild animals?
Or lost in the empty spaces between the stars?

  10. I vote for flying. I've had soaring dreams a lot - with a bird's eye view. You'd be lucky to get me on a plane, however!
