Ethereal Dune: A Sonnet of Misty Reveries"
I, a denizen of misty reveries,
Wherein my mind doth paint a brighter hue
Of days that shine with sunbeams, full of ease
And skies aglow with hues of gold and blue.
A paradise of my own imagination,
Where clouds of cares and fears do disperse
And all is peace and sweet tranquillization
As I behold the sunset's peaceful verse.
But alas, my feet have yet to tread its ground
For though I've dreamed of this fair paradise
I've not yet found the means to reach its bound
And thus, my heart remains in deep-set sighs.
But still, I'll hold on hope, that one day soon
I'll find my way to that ethereal dune.
