River of Dreams

24 x 48 inches, oil/wax on canvas, 2012

River of Dreams

I stand on the shore
Of the river of dreams
I am its guard,
guardian, gatekeeper

When the sun sleeps
And the moon awakens
You travel in my river

Close your eyes
Release your thoughts
Drift into restful slumber

Immerse yourself 
Flow with its current
Let it take you
Where you need to go
Slip
deep
deep
deep
Beneath the surface
Free your unconscious

Dream

Face your fears
Dance with your demons
Nourish your soul
Heal your heart
