A Simple Story

A dream is simply a story It has neither a beginning, nor an end It starts in the middle and ends where it intends Like all stories, it paints a picture Some pictures are in focus and clearly real Others are blurred and simply surreal But they all proffer a question, in the mind’s eye An eye with an answer that may never arrive Yet only reciprocate with it, like a vision of Pi A vision nonetheless; of a world within a world A vision of grandeur A vision of love or Simply a vision of nonsense… Rob Carmack's poetry contest "Dreams" 23 April 2015

Dreams in a nut shell, Mark! I try not to give dreams much importance, but some people take them very seriously, and could be that they are right! All the best. // paul

Our dreams may be trying to tell us something we need to know, but it is never easy to unravel the mystery of what that something is... Your words provoke very deep thoughts. I really enjoyed this wonderful poem, Mark!
