Dreams?

Rue smiled as she closed the door.

She loved this town, those people

She couldn't love them more.


Jacob went through so much trouble

To give her this gift,

Of love at Christmas

her spirits uplift.


She put her eagle by her bed.

She wished she could be with them instead

But something was wrong

Her good mood gone

her heart filled with dread.


Her dreams were getting worse

It felt like she was cursed.

She couldn't make out a thing

Just knew the fear that they would bring.

She picked up the Dream Catcher

Billy's gift, from the box she did lift

Hoping beyond hope it would trap

The bad dreams as she held it on her lap


How did Billy know

It was exactly what she needed?

She hung it above her bed

Her energy depleted.


She lay down upon her pillow

Images immediately filled her head

Teasing, taunting, mocking her belief

That the Dream Catcher

could bring her some relief.
