I saw a prompt about a dream

That I would wish to last forever.

My mind was quick to catch a fever

Of colored fantasies that flashed

Inside my inner eye.

I was surprised

How many roads I have abandoned

In search of scarlet poppy field.

How many yearnings I have yold

To chase a happy ever after.

What a beautiful disaster

The longing for a life that’s greener,

and yet in that fever

I know for sure what dream I’d chose.
