MyDream—Catcher
I’m gazing at my dream-catcher
It has caught my gaze
I’m dreaming of someone
Through purple haze
A golden shower feathered
Through my mind
Beam of butterflies
Were easy to find
A Black Widow Spider
Attempted to draw me near
But did get caught in its’ web
I had nothing to fear
For my dream—catcher
Protected me from harm
And the Widow
Disappeared in “Alarm”!!!
