Dear Lin, There’s such quiet courage and wonder in the way you move through darkness and embrace what’s beyond. It's like you’re inviting us to soar alongside your dreams. Blessings, Dear Lin, Daniel

Hi Daniel. Your comments are so complimentary that I feel underserving of them for just 17 syllables. However, I take your thoughts to heart, and if you find my flights worthy, you're welcome to join me any time.

You're already 6 hours ahead of me, chick... Thanks.

Lin, it's wonderful when we can fall asleep knowing that our dreams will reflect the magic in our lives. This is something to think about when getting ready for bed. Something to appreciate and anticipate. I think I will try it this evening. Thanks for this poem and what I can take as a suggestion from it. It's not often that a poem can change our behavior, but you've done it! Smiles and Tys for this homer!!!

I don't often dream, Duke. Probably because I don't sleep enough consecutive hours to sleep deeply enough. Thanks for liking these lines so well.
