Imaginations

I dream of a rainbow wood
In a world beyond our moor
Where the moon looms as the sun
And fireflies twirl into stars

I dream of a rainbow wood
Of singing fairies and listening unicorns
Where dancing dwarfs and crickets
Weave music into the clouds

I dream of a rainbow wood
Its seasons telling stories of spring blossoms
Of autumnal colours and winds
Of summer’s delights and warmth
Of winter’s chill and plays of snowballs

I dream of a rainbow wood
With showers of fallen embers
and shimmering waterfalls
Meander with the golden streams
Into an eternity beyond gleam

hi scribbler,,,,

thanks for your warmth welcome. Glad to be a part of the community again.

I have questions though and they go like this,,,, If I was a member of Neopoet before it went offline and now back;
1. Can I sign in with my old user account or do I have to create a whole new identity?
2. Can I repost my old works? If no, why?

thanks for you time.
best wishes

Knew that the next poem would shine, just along the lines of fairies and things where I wander sometimes.
The ink is running with the new mood, forgot to welcome you back to Neopoet, Yours Ian.T

Hello WG,

Good title that lends to the rest of the piece. I love fantasy poems, so this my cup of tea! I think the language usage makes the lines flow from one to the next. Great imagery, too! I like these lines best:

I dream of a rainbow wood
With showers of fallen embers
and shimmering waterfalls
Meander with the golden streams
Into an eternity beyond gleam

I read that you used to be a neo poet previously. What user name did you go by? Perhaps I know you from before?

always, Cat

Hi Candlewitch,,,,

nice of you to pass by and read this piece. I appreciate it. thanks.
the imagery of the poem intrigues me myself. Fantasy poems and novels are my greatest source of inspiration. it's a huge world of dazzling ideas beyond imagining. one can simply live eternity in there and not bother about the real world. pity that it's not real.
I read the except of "The Book of Styx". I definitely would give it a read.

*GOLLY KWAME WONDER was my user name before neopoet went offline. wasn't that much of a regular face around but I visited quite often.

respects.

Hello GW,

I was ill for a long time so that may be why I don't remember you. So I say "Hello and Welcome!" Your poems are a breath of fresh air! Thank you for looking into "the Book Of Styx!" written by my male alter ego.

always, Cat
