Elusive Reality

This is a submission for Kevin’s No Theme Thursday.

Shifting dimensions, to worlds unseen,
Reality bends, and thoughts become dreams.
Threads of fate, connecting to realms unknown,
Where conversations with the ether, are a world of their own.

A language of riddles, energy and light,
Transcends the boundaries of existence, from day to night.
Within otherworldly planes, I soar and fly,
Expanding consciousness, reaching up through the sky.

Conversations with celestial beings, with wisdom to behold,
Scenes that are mystical, yet dreams unfold.
Within flashes of cosmic light, mysteries abound,
Messages from the other side, always profound.

Do you ever have lucid dreams?

  1. Wow Laura, your poem “Elusive Reality” is like a mesmerizing journey through the fabric of existence itself! The way you weave words together paints such vivid imagery of transcending reality and delving into the mysteries of unseen worlds. Your exploration of threads of fate and conversations with the ether feels like stepping into a realm where anything is possible. And those celestial beings and cosmic lights? They add such a mystical depth to the piece, leaving me utterly captivated. You have a gift for creating an enchanting atmosphere that pulls the reader into a world where the boundaries of imagination blur. It’s truly magical!

      • Thank you Laura ❀ … You are awesome and why I'm hanging out with you (safe over here)! Every May I have to put up a shield (force field) to repel the unwanted/unwarranted evil energy headed straight for my head (lol). I don't say dark energy b/c that can be very beautiful, and I love all things and everyone … sadly there's an opposite action/reaction to everything too. I've tried many avenues (of Earth and outside her/Heaven) and what works best, is usually very draining and that's holding up a very heavy, cumbersome, impenetrable shield that any wish (good/bad) sent in my direction will automatically bounce back to the recipient. We should try this on each other, but friendly fire (lol) !!!

      • Ohhh you are too welcome! πŸ™ ❀️
        You are awesome as well and your comments and writing always make me feel glorious! Oh no, I’m so sorry to hear about the unwanted energy, I don’t know the details but I’m sending you positive and healing energy and thoughts! β€οΈβ€πŸ©Ή No one deserves to have any evil directed at them, especially you! I would love to try out your theory, only sending good intentions! πŸ™ 😊

      • Yay … it works!!! I’m used to walking the trenches of evil and most (99%) sway to my side of the force, but there’s that percentage that looms over me and waits for me to let down my defenses. Not this year!!! LOL!!!! ❀ !!!!!

  3. Mystical and even psychedelic. Great poem! I wrote some poems like this one but they’re in my native tongue and I’d find it hard to translate them… And yes, I had lucid dreams, really powerful ones. But it’s been a while since I had them, I don’t have them recently.

    • Thank you for sharing your thoughts! I would love to read them if you do decide to publish them. I like to imagine what it’s like when I’m dreaming, either lucidly, in a trance, and communicating outside my body when I write like this. Is it the same for you? Lucid dreams are awesome if we are able to induce them. 😊 Thank you again! πŸ™

      • Thank you for writing a great poem to share my thoughts on. 😊 I might try to translate some of them, I’ll see about that. I had really powerful lucid dreams in one phase of my life, I maybe even had out of body experiences while dreaming. I had this dream of going of the Earth to the Universe and seeing the vivid, living strings welcoming me there. I might write a post about it. Thanks for inspiring me! At that time I was immensely exploring my mind and had really good inquiries. I read C.G. Jung, Ouspensky and Carlos Castaneda. Ever read any of them?

      • Out of body experiences are amazing but sometimes scary! And of course, I’m glad it could resonate with you! 😊 Do you remember what you were doing to induce the lucid dreams, and why you don’t have them anymore as much? Write a post! I would love to read about it. So glad to be an inspiration, 😊 and exploring our mind is most certainly never a bad thing. And yes, I’ve read Jung and Carlos Castaneda; the art of dreaming – however don’t think I’ve read Ouspensky. Will have a look, thank you for the recommendation! πŸ™

      • I never had an out of body experience while awake. In fact, I could say that I had it only that time when I had that perticular dream. Regarding lucid dreaming, at that time I was intensely into spirituality and exploring my mind, so I had a practice from Castaneda’s books if I remember correctly, and the point was to ask yourself: “Am I dreaming?”, while awake. That helped to induce that question in my dreams. But it was also an intense phase of my life where my consciousness grew stronger and I had lucid dreams naturally. I think now I’m not in a place mentaly to have lucid dreams, cause I work on overcoming hard psychological obstacles and don’t feel that powerful, and maybe it’s just not a time to have the dreams now, maybe I’ll start having them again sometime in the future. I’ll write a post about that experience and let you know when I do. 😊

    • We did! This also happened recently too, you sent me the Libra drawing, and I was working on the Libra poem, haha! πŸ˜† pretty soon I feel like we will be writing each other’s thoughts, just like you said not too long ago! ❀️ and thank you πŸ™
