The Beautiful Dreams of an Unbeautiful Dreamer

THE BEAUTIFUL DREAMS OF AN UNBEAUTIFUL DREAMER
I lie safe and happy in the arms of the perfect man
Not perfect in face or body
But perfectly sweet in spirit
Gentle in manner
A little bit shy
A little bit strange
Big sense of humor
Tempered with a little sadness
Strong, long-fingered hands
Caressing, appreciating
The parts of me I hate the most
Deep, warm kisses, only for me
Drawing me out of the shell of my fear
Into his arms and his heart
Returning his sweet love
I wake alone in my shabby room
Except for the animals wanting to be fed
And the neighbor's children shouting and jumping on the trampoline.

Like Arlo Guthrie's Pickle Song, it came to me, like a flash--like a vision.
I just wrote it down!
