Olympus
Olympus
I dreamt about the crumbling hills,
of lavender, drenched, scented
Highlights of silver dusty light,
grey moons, sad and tormented
I dreamt of rocks rent asunder
racing to sure destruction
the sound of Cicadas
Gods who gave instruction
I dreamt of mortals bowed,
bowed deep before the thunder
I dreamt of sons who prayed
and the ramblings of their fathers
I dreamt of beauty's soft sweet form,
of cotton warmly pressed
The sounds of love of life,
the shape of limb and breast
I Dreamt of Titans softly crying
and infant screams in sleep
I dreamt of dust on rock strewn fields
waters running dark and deep
Where children dreamt of Cerberus
before the sun would finally rise
And mist would quietly disappear
between the earth and the burning sky
