Dreamt I of What Came to Me


    By Dan Tharp


    Falling asleep ''neath a cypress tree


    Falling asleep ''neath a cypress tree


    What variegated colors came calling to me


    What variegated colors came calling to me


    `Neath falling colors, asleep to me


    What came calling?... A variegated cypress tree


    I dreamt of ink in a well so deep


    I dreamt of ink in a well so deep


    As an envelope as full of words to eat


    As an envelope as full of words to eat


    In an envelope of words, I dreamt to eat


    Of ink as full as a well so deep


    So, away I went, to write of that told


    So, away I went, to write of that told


    Tears as joy, on paper to fold


    Tears as joy, on paper to fold


    That on paper to write, of joy told


    As tears went away... so I, to fold


    Joy as tears, full of words went to calling


    Ink as well, in an envelope a falling


    Variegated colors to eat of that told


    So, away I write on paper to fold


    As deep asleep, ''neath a cypress tree


    So, dreamt I... of what came to me
