Dreams are the seedlings of realities Grown from the seeds of thoughts Planted in the dark soil of the mind Under the psychic atmosphere of sweetness. Dreams are the shadows of life Ghosting around the thoughts realm Like solemn spirits catching rides On the lanes of dark k(nights).

Really short poem but Tolulope has basically told us a lot about dreams. Dreams are really the seedlings of realities as stated by the poet and that's a line I'v picked as a quote from this lovely piece.
