At Times My Dreams Are Like Silent Movies

 at times my dreams are like silent movies

I think the words I cannot say

for instance, cloud

and a cloud appears with a lemon streak in it

on a lavender horizon

or I think train 

and it's already speeding in the other direction

away from me

what can I say anyway

in dream language to myself

I dont already know when I am waking

and the light filters through the blinds

and stray gleams tell me quietly

the snow is on the ground

the stars have fallen to earth.
