Notes About The Poem

Daydreams

Down where azalea blooms linger Creek's rhythm leads bird the singer After the storm exposed gnarled, twisted roots Swiftly creek's water still runs, love We could float to the gulf, dove Better to be freed altogether though Strong wings lift the spirit to heights. We never dreamed in our times of flight. Again, let down, our dreams dissipate

Sara, that was a beautiful poem you wrote. At some time, dreams will end, but before it does, they will have left you with some stray thoughts.

The weather does break loose some creeks or melting snow to show the erosion of the land besides take some of it with it. Great verse, enjoyed reading.
