Welcome to my April 2026 Great and Powerful Blogging from A to Z Challenge!

I’ve revealed my theme (A poem a day…maybe even with pictures), and of course, I am unashamedly blogging my theme letters on the fly.  So, here goes nothing!

So, without further ado, D is for … Dreams

Or do I mean nightmares?

Night Terrors

I woke this morning and tried to stand
my feet were water, slipping, flooding the hard wood floor.
I tried to push myself onto my knees
but knees flamed, sparks flying across the room.
My hands were bright balls of light
blinding my eyes, that were grapes, peeled
like ones we feel in a Hallowe’en vat
next to spaghetti brains and potato fingers.
I fell on my back, but it melted into the floor
back to sleep, and I hoped soon I would wake
from this nightmare, as I had so many times before.

Thanks for visiting my 2026 A to Z Challenge – Letter D.
