A Dream come True




It was dark,Black as night.
A ray of light did creep in stealthly
Shy and reluctantly.
I lay still.
Hovering in shadows,
Of wakefulness and sleep.
Mind drunk with dreams,
Eyes could not really see,
Was this real or fantasy.
Behold, rose a form,
From the earth with an unsteady grace.
Not a sound escaped,the deafening silence.
My heart pounded, reasons why?
It turned its head,yes,towards me.
I prayed,the five senses did.
There was a dribble ,between sharp white specks
Unrelenting ,signalling serious wreck.
I lay still,
Awake.unsure.undecided.
I lay still,
Awaiting.praying.Hoping.
It pounced,agility unleashed,
Licked me and said ‘’me..ma..thatha’’
I lay still,
Warm.Cuddled and loved.
I lay still,
With my little bundle of joy.
A Dream that came true.
