You’re transported to a bed of elm leaves
in the middle of a meadow
with nothing else in sight.

Your eyes become heavy,
weighing down
the thoughts in your mind...

New ideas begin to sprout...

Everything comes to life.

Pastel hues of pinks, purples, and yellows cloud the sky
as strokes of lightning form rivers and valleys.

There are mountain peaks covered in snow
that tower over the beaches below.
Stars and planets shining bright in the daylight,
right at your grasp.

Orange monarch butterflies move along with the Whistling Wind
as the drummer boy plays his song…
With every note flowing into the sky
flowers bloom and birds hum along.

The Shining Sun opens a pathway
surrounded by Weeping Willows
that takes you to your heart’s desire.

At the end of the path you open your eyes...


And ultimately realize what dreamland has taught you.
