Lord Of Dreams!

I wished I were a Lord of dreams, ruling my dreamland - as a sovereign…

And there to obey me, before my feet, should prostrate the sun’s beam!

My magnificent throne must be installed on the bank of an elegant stream,

Carved fairies of marble, to bathe, should gather there at the downstream!

Their mellifluous chuckles and the honey drops from their lips must assuage me,

And to beautify them, their chubby cheeks, must be smeared with milky-cream!

I wished I were a Lord of dreams, ruling my dreamland - as a sovereign…

Sitting arrogantly on throne, I wish, my bright face should shine agleam!

Days embellished with fantasies of tweets, nights adorned with divine upbeats,

And my desired dreamland, just to soothe me, should have the Utopian theme!

And there must be nightingale’s song as well as peacocks flaunt in my residence,

Also, there must be a flying horse in my yard. Such splendid should be my regime!

I wished I were a Lord of dreams, ruling my dreamland - as a sovereign…

To sing lullabies for me, pixies must come down, by the ladder of moonbeam!
