Borrowed Dreams

Listen to poem:
On a passing cloud there floats a dream A silent prayer The shape of bittersweet Solitude by the reverie Without a string In the dead of night Overlapping universes By the water's edge How sweet it is Borrowed bits of spirituality Dreams are made of this Mother Earth, my mortal muse Matters of the heart Music of my youth Where have the years gone When I close my eyes Riding out the thunder storm I dream a day I dream a night However many Time won’t wait What if later never comes Forever eternally Infinity is now A sun that never sets (each line is a title of one of my poems) Published in my 24-page photo/anthology ~MINDFULLY~ 2021 AP: Honorable Mention 2020 Submitted on July 8, 2019 for contest COLLABORATION OF YOUR TITLES sponsored by CHARLES MESSINA - RANKED 2ND

I liked this so well, and would have never realized it was titles of your poems if you had not mentioned it. Nicely done! Good luck in the contest.
