20150325: I Can't Stop (For S)

Poem. I Can't Stop 

I go twirling, Swirling,
Up and and up
Turning, turning, , twirling, swirling, twisting, twirling
Up to the the top 
I can't stop.
I go bending and and rolling, roiling and boiling
Over and over 
Up to the edge
I go lifted shifted upward and onwards
On and and on
Up to the end
I go turning and turning lifted and shifted
I can't stop
I go tumbling mumbling swirling and shifted 
I can't stop
I go up and on and over up and on and over
I go to the top of the edge of the end ..
And I stop.

It was only a dream

On 28 April I submitted this at the last minute to a contest on AllPoetry.com regarding dreams; the prompt being:

prompt:  will you write me a poem about your dream.  word limit 100 words, 80 words used.

I cut the poem down in order to meet the word limit and obtained an honourable  mention!  Here is the cut down poem:

I Can't Stop

I go twirling, swirling,
Up and up
Turning, swirling, twisting, twirling
Up to the top 
I can't stop.
I go bending and rolling, roiling and boiling
Over and over 
Up to the edge
I go lifted and shifted, upward and onwards
On and on
Up to the end
I go up and on and over, up and on and over
I go up to the top of the edge of the end ..
And I stop.

It was only a dream.
