A Son Asked

~A Son Asked~

How can i give when i have nothing?
Because nobody has nothing you have 
everything but did not know 
you had everything.

How will i know if i am in love? 
Everything you do is richer and 
fuller when love is there only when 
you fall in love when you desire with 
passion when you miss the flame in 
her eyes when you envy the ground 
she walks on when you leave her and 
regret doing so when your dream is
all about her wanting her to be next to 
you now this moment this second that 
is called a dream come true! Love.

Is living a dream?
Only when you wake up in the morning 
full of love stay in love the whole day 
no matter what look at the twilight 
smelling the perfume from your balcony 
having a reason to get dressed to go out 
full of happiness energy plan an aim 
with a goal & success this is when you 
start living it becomes a dream come
true.

Is forgiving a dream?
Only when you regret if anybody was hurt 
if you stop judging & being resentful and 
you can sleep at night with no remorse it 
becomes a beautiful dream come true.

Is being human a dream? 
Only when you will feel other peoples pain
when you will open your heart and even 
shed a tear that is being human it becomes 
a dream come. 

Is sharing a dream?
Only when you start sharing even a piece
of bread give unconditionally listen to the
voice & respond feel the beating of a heart
be everywhere it becomes a dream.

Is friendship a dream?
Only when you become friends for
life it becomes a dream come true.

Is being compassionate a dream? 
Only when you love life when you
feel you can climb on top of the 
mountain and envy the beyond
& feel compassionate it becomes
a dream.

Is being intelligent a dream?
Only when you use your brain towards 
the right directions right decisions
be patient tolerant accept change
when needed proud of who you are
persistent succeed over the years it 
will become a dream come true.

Is having a mother a dream?
I can only think about this reply:
Since birth until the end a mother
is the shadow of each child its an 
everlasting love this is a dream 
come true.

How will you know if you are a writer:
Only when you never stop writing.
                                                                         Therese Bacha

"When you feel you can climb the top of the mountain and envy the beyond" This was a real stand out line for me. Intense! This was uniquely written and makes me think more deeply about the things I have... and just how lucky it is that I have them. I hope to never stop writing... thanks for the inspiration this morning!

Hi Terry; I hope you are doing good. This is a great poem. All these questions asked. You gave good answers. There was a song a long time ago, sang by Doris Day, Que Sera Sera - What ever Will Be Will Be. Goes like this - When I was just a little girl, I asked my mother - What will I be? Will I be pretty? Will I be rich? Here is what she said to me. Que Sera Sera - your future I can not see. Que sera sera. Lucilla

Lots of reflective thought in this one, my dear friend. The dream within a dream theme, what is the dream? Nicely done. Our brains are capable of so very much. We have only scratched the surface of what God blessed us with , if we but learn to use it. So lovely seeing you and this poem here today.
