The Fixer

I'm known as the fixer The collector of broken dreams Setting the pieces like a puzzle I put gold between the seams All your thoughts within my reach I look deep within your mind That's where the hopes and dreams hide What I seek I'm sure to find Dreams you thought impossible Abandoned to yesterday Come to life with a single thought With a whisper I show the way I truly am the fixer The repairer of broken dreams Setting the pieces like a puzzle I put gold between the seams You don't need to walk away This dreaming's not a joke If you choose to give up faith Dreams will surely turn to smoke When you're lost within lifes shadows And you're feeling coloured blind I'll open up the door a crack So that light can flood your mind Because I am the fixer The repairer of broken dreams I see your puzzle pieces I put gold between the seams Now you have possibilities When you start you must follow through Living your dreams is better Just believe and they'll come true I'll help you find the answers Those gems hidden within your soul You have an important part to play It's time to take on your role For you too are a fixer A repairer of broken dreams Setting the pieces like a puzzle You put gold between the seams Setting the pieces like a puzzle You put gold between the seams

This is a very thought provoking write, it makes one ponder many things and I can appricate all these elements of emotions that you ask us to think about the puzzle of our lives becomes very clear in this work, and how we much at times patch our world together, cheri

My first thought when I read this was that you were talking about God. How if we have faith he can light up our darkness, mend our broken hearts, patch together our dreams. This is awesome!

Thanks, perhaps it's our God working within us to help us and others reach towards our dreams.

I sure could use your help, Mr Fixer...See, I have this dream of one day becoming a famous poetess. Before I die...I want to have my name on a book of poetry....I've taken a knock or two about my work, Mr Fixer...my dream seams a bit broken at the time...Got any of that gold left? You are a sweet poet, Richard. A kind man...Bless you.

Well, you lived up to your name, Mr Fixer Man. Once my thesis on collaborative writing is done...I'll go for it. Hugs

Your talent is undeniable and the book is already written. All you need to do is compile the pages. The part that currently is lacking is the belief in yourself. This surprises me considering how talented you are. A great place to start is with a company called Book Baby, you can produce an e-book for as little as $150.00 and it can be purchased anywhere in the world. Go for it!

I am always willing to lend an ear. It's amazing how most people posses their own answers and simply by being heard they find the clarity they were seeking.

Sorry I am short on time but wish to thank all of you for posting comments on my poem. I am working with a musician to see if this piece has the makings of a song.

Fixer indeed -- what I like is that we all help each other achieve our dreams. It's never a solo act but team work . . . that is a refreshing feeling. Nicely done Richard, 7
