THE DREAM
It has already been
determined how much I burned my candle because of a
haunting in a dream.
A dream so extreme,
it felt so supreme,
call it blasphemy,
because this dream made me
scream.
A dream where I dreamt of
cedar and oak romancing my figure
and caressing my body under
a starry sky.
A sky so intensifying,
it bewildered my mind.
Under the starry sky
I didn’t feel any lack,
any lack of love,
for I knew it was all
there.
And in this dream the woods
capture my soul.
The cedar and oak entangle
me so.
Why do they do so,
seduce me each night?
They entangle me in their
bewildering webs.
I just float through the
night
in the midst of the
shadows.
I dance with the branches,
I play with the leaves
until the dawn begins to
rise.
And just as it rises,
it sets just as well,
and when it does my friends
and I
begin to dance.
In a trance
we move about.
The glowing moon watches
from above.
We twirl and we run.
We enjoy the sounds of a
sleepless night.
Why do these woods entangle
me so,
wrapping me in their
bewildering webs?
When the fall comes they
shelter my body
from cold frost bites, and
as the winter tiptoes in
I run about,
there’s no doubt.
Trotting on the leaves,
scouting through the
forest.
Pecan, cedar, oak, or
maple,
I love my trees.
They are my friends,
they entice me
to the end.

About the Author:
Originally from Shreveport, Louisiana, Ingrid Jennings is what one would call a true Lioness. As a wife and a mother, she is loyal and a protector. As a publishing guru, she is a team player and works with her clients toward their success. As a teacher, she is passionate about education, and as a business woman, she is always on the hunt for new opportunities to learn and grow. She wears many hats and handles each situation in stride and with ease.
With a B.S. in biology and chemistry from Palm Beach Atlantic Christian University, Ingrid decided to go a step further, to get a step closer to her true passion by excelling with her masters degree in reading education from Nova Southeastern University.
Ingrid spent three years working as a public school teacher in Palm Beach County, teaching integrated science to ninth graders. While teaching, Ingrid self-published her poetry into her first book titled Slopjar. Slopjar recieved rave reviews not only for its creativity, excellent writing, and self expression but also for the excellence of its publishing and marketing. Through the experience and knowledge gained while publishing and marketing her own book, Ingrid gained an appreciation for the inner workings of the publishing world and ultimately birthed her own publishing company Lioness Publishing House.
