Dream, and Dream, and Dream

I'll Dream . And Dream . . And Dream I'll dream until my soul awakes, And it's time for youth to part I'll dream until my passion breaks, And this child's abandoned heart I'll dream a lost and former friend, The innocence I've held to tight Before the colors blur, and blend, I'll dream of who I was tonight Before my tears drip down, and dry, I'll dream with colors pure and gold Before the innocence inside me dies, And childhood is hardened cold I'll dream as if absorbed in youth, Illusion moonlight show'ring light Blind to pain and awful truth, I'll dream of who I was tonight. 10/6/2011 "Dreams"

Oh, Dana'lynn, this poem evokes both sadness and hope. Keep those dreams alive, dear. There are many who feel abandoned today, but dreams like this recall the best times of our life. I hope you entered this one in the "Dream" contest because it's a winner in my book. I'll have to check soup mail. Love, Carolyn
