Floating in a nebula
Star-dusted ephemera
Shapes emerge in the duraStretching to touch
Shapes without form
In motionless fluxPermeating my dreams
Wonders of the galaxies
Visions of infinity

This is, indeed, dreamlike. The phrase that caught my attention and got me thinking is “motionless flux.”

Your words have a dream-like flow and now I just want to open the curtains and stargaze into infinity.

The rhymes in the first stanza emphasise the dreaminess of your poem, Viv. I love the shift from the shapes to the motionless flux n the second stanza.
