Writing From the Back of a Dream

There I was floating free amid the clouds such freedom without wings I saw the past I saw the future I saw all the world The past was a thin cloud The future was a shining hope The world was full of wonder for all to see I saw it in one dream I dreamed I saw a dim cloud grey and forlorn it seemed not happy It seemed weighed down yet it did not hold me back I saw it and I moved on I see the cloud and I see my past but it doesn't bother me clouds float away disappear into nothing My past is like a cloud it floats away leaving the future the future is shining to me like a bright place I saw waiting for me.

An amazing poem, Kerry. Your faith in future is laudable. Why not, why look to the past. Past is a history. Why keep digging it? Very positive thoughts. -Mohammad
