My Dream Journey

I'd long planned for this journey, back to where we first had met, and to the promises we made that I could not forget. I walked the streets in search of that enchanted time we knew, when all the world was young and it revolved around we two. The streets had turns I didn't know; I was confused and lost. The signs had all been jumbled at each avenue I crossed. Defeated, I retraced my steps. The past I could not find. It was then I knew, the path to you, lies only in my mind. Rambling Poet's contest Theme: Traveling to a place I had dreamed of.

Joyce this poem is absolutely beautiful. I have rated it a seven. I am saddened that it did not get entered in my contest. I have done exactly the same thing, on occasion, wrote the poem, but forgot to enter. It is very disappointing. But this a winner in my eyes, and one day, enter it in another contest, that fits the theme, because you have done an excellent job in writing it.. Constance
