Chapter 70 - Paradelle 3

Dreamt I of What Came to Me

By Dan Tharp

Falling asleep 'neath a cypress tree

Falling asleep 'neath a cypress tree

What variegated colors came calling to me

What variegated colors came calling to me

`Neath falling colors, asleep to me

What came calling?... A variegated cypress tree

I dreamt of ink in a well so deep

I dreamt of ink in a well so deep

As an envelope as full of words to eat

As an envelope as full of words to eat

In an envelope of words, I dreamt to eat

Of ink as full as a well so deep

So, away I went, to write of that told

So, away I went, to write of that told

Tears as joy, on paper to fold

Tears as joy, on paper to fold

That on paper to write, of joy told

As tears went away... so I, to fold

Joy as tears, full of words went to calling

Ink as well, in an envelope a falling

Variegated colors to eat of that told

So, away I write on paper to fold

As deep asleep, 'neath a cypress tree

So, dreamt I... of what came to me
