Throughout the night when there's no direct light
and a thin veil of clouds keeps the stars out of sight
I can smell the colors outside on my lawn
The moist green organic that my feet tread upon
And the black oleander surrounded by blues
I'm soon overwhelmed by olfactory hues
Bouncing Around the Room
The woman was a dream I had though rather hard to keep
For when my eyes were watching hers, they closed, and I was still asleep.
For when my hand was holding hers, she whispered words and I awoke
And faintly bouncing around the room the echo of whomever spoke
I awoke and faintly bouncing round the room the echo of whomever spoke.
The place I saw was far beneath the surface of the sea
My sight was poor but I was sure the sirens sang their songs for me
They dance above me as I sink I see them through a crystal haze
And hear them bouncing round the room the never ending coral maze
That time and once again I'm bouncing around the room.
