ETHEREAL ENCOUNTER

 

Sleep met Lord Death one icy winter's day,

"I'll weave a wizard spell of dreams" Death said

"In which muddled mortals will be meekly led

To graze in shadows grey like sheep at play.

 

Compare two states,attend to what I say!

Brief is your sleeping dream enjoyed in bed,

On waking it's firm, and stays until you're dead.

Listen!Know this Truth,it is an ancient way .

 

All seems Real to sleeper's satisfaction

The stuff of dreams,a brain's reaction."

"Thank you"said Sleep "for making this so clear

If I'm dreamed by Thee,where's the need to fear?"

 

"What you hear explains your stupefaction

So wake up and lend an enquiring ear ."

 

 

Alan
