I’m awake
In a dream
Though asleep
It would seem,
I recall
Having counted
Them all,
The sheep
Who bring sleep,
And so roam
In my head,
At their face
I dare peek,
In their stead
Be those loved,
Lined my mind
More than few
Now reside, inside
A necropolis wall,
Knowing more
I’ll eventually find,
Though not sheep
While asleep
Awake in a dream,
From this side of the wall!

Wow, great poem.
Thank you Paulette… After that little tap on the head, hard not to be inspired by like thoughts, which are in any event all part of being alive. A little diversion from the grind of finalizing books I am now completing for publication. Jean-Jacques

Merci Madame… je suis très heureux de faire votre connaissance.Thank you for letting me know that my words touched you. Always encouraging to hear.
May I call you Melanie, and please call me Jean-Jacques.
You had me hooked with the title! There’s a lot to think about, I love it.
It was not my intention to hook per se, though pleased if it did and thus so touched you. Thank you for letting me know.
Our perceptions of reality is a theme that intrigues me.
As it does me, and forever interesting to explore the many facets of what we so-called humans believe to be reality. Thank you for your inspiring comment Jean-Jacques Fournier
I’m truly enjoying the design and layout of your site. It’s a very easy on the eyes which makes it much more enjoyable for me to come here and visit more often. Fantastic work!
I’m really digging this site. It’s simple, yet effective. A lot of times it’s tough to get that “perfect balance” between usability and visual appeal. I must say that you’ve done a very good job with this. Excellent Blog!
Ah, just beautiful… You’ve done it again.
It pleases me no end to receive accolades from someone who create with the likes of your talent. Thank you for your generous and encouraging words! Jean-Jacques
