Dreams.....

How often do we dream? DO we really need to run all the time? Cannot we think of dreaming as a way of unwinding? Did you know there's a poet in each one of us?

Dreams....

I had wished I could dream

I’m glad now I carry many a dream……..

A long morning I’d have with our daughter

Away from the routine

Giggling and exploring gardens

Where we’ve never been….

An afternoon of tea with memories of the years

That we’ve left behind as the calendar had to change

The ‘cell’ and the phone kept on ‘mute’

As stories with my husband I’d love to exchange

Evening would slow down

With our son holding the oars

Our boat rowing in dark blue waters

Before night opens her doors….

A long letter to some childhood friend

To wipe off the decades and the miles

My heart will be poured out, wounds shared

with words wrapped in tears and smiles….

A night I’d be under the moonlit sky

As stars would twinkle and shine

Constellations I’d watch and count

and click the silver mine!

To search for a meaning in life

I dive deep into my mind

More dreams keep cocooning there

With time, wings they’ll find!
