Morning Dream #5

                       Morning Dream #5


                                                     there's a

                                                     tiger

                                                     sleeping

                                                     at the

                                                     bottom

                                                     of the

                                                     stairs



                                                     protecting

                                                     me
 
                                                     from

                                                     no one

                                                     but

                                                     myself

  2. A tiger can represent so many things. A sleeping tiger is best at symbolizing potential --for defense, for acquisition-- but mostly the absence of need for sudden strength and action. To dream one at the stairway to higher functions of the mind would be a sign of safety, I think, and of confidence.

  3. I much prefer your dreams to mine. Last night, I dreamed I owed a quarter-million dollars in medical bills. Maybe the tiger would be good for protecting me from bill collectors. (Thank goodness that was only a dream, and not reality!)

    1. That does not sound like a pleasant dream at all. This dream, at first, seemed like it might have another meaning, but as it wanted to be a poem, it showed me something else .... and i like it. :)
