About A Boy

My dream was real
A little boy stared at  me
I do not know who he was

Perhaps he knows me
I do not know who he is
Its a mystery to me

Hello Panagiota, it was a strange dream. I could see the little boy clearly. All he did was stare. So strange. Hugs. xxx /Darlene/

Love that you set this dream in a poem. Just this past week, i dreamed talking thru an open window (no vague symbol there!)!) to an old boyfriend. Haha. Maybe you’ll have a follow up dream…

Dear Darlene, I love how this leaves us with a sense of mystery without the answers. Dreams are always wonderful gateways into our subconscious mind and if it was meant to be you will know one day. Autumn Blessings, My Dear Friend, Daniel

So interesting! Dreams can make us wonder. My granddaughter was 4 when for the first time it popped in my head ‘Can you love another grandchild the way you love her?’ Surely was the Spirit of God because the next day I found out my daughter was pregnant.
