Dreamers
Shimmering lights in the sky of night,
Misty fog obscuring the vision.
Both are glimpses of a dream world
Hidden to everything but the mind.

A rainbow arching color across the sky,
Sunlight sparkling upon the water.
Two worlds linked together
By these crossings of visions.

Every now and then the dream worlds will glimpse
Terror, destruction, fear, and fraud.
All the experiences that make our world human.
All the experiences that make our world fearful.

Yet every now and then
Someone comes along
Who is barely human:
Socrates, Beethoven, Leonardo da Vinci.
For those you can see such beauty,
Those who aren't caught up in traffic,
Those people are hardly human,
But dreamers sent from a dream world.
