Dream Essence

Craft a poem inspired by the feelings a dream left you with rather than its specific content.

Dreams can be elusive and fluid but the feelings they stir within us when we wake up often stay. This prompt is about writing a poetic exploration of those lingering dream feelings—whether they’re joy, fear, confusion, peace, or something else. Let the emotions guide your poetry, and see what metaphors, similes, or symbols they carry with them when freed from the traditional constraints of dream scenarios.
