Dream Times

In the world of dreams 
Always moving forward like
the relentless waves pounding
upon an ocean shore
Deep into the realms of sub-conscience
Where matter defines who and what we are
The essence of our existence
Leading us to a pathway 
between our present, past and future
Depths as deep as the oceans secrets
Drawing us towards the known and unknown
Savoring, tasting, tantalizing our thoughts
Focusing on reality versus imagination
Leading us to pathways, never discovered
which can dazzle, delight and direct our progression
Can play and tune the imagination
Taking us on exquisite journeys.

Those dreams are wonderful even if they don't come true for a moment in time we lived it..Sixty is only middle age..Mankind is suppose to live for one-hundred-twenty years..Thanks for stopping by..No I do not live close to the flooding area but do feel deeply for those who do..Sara

Wow, this is fabulous, Phyllis. Your description of the impact dreams have as well as how they define us is deep and quite profound. Dreams can be a source of joy, fear and many other emotions. They also provide us with inspiration. Thank you for your kind comment on my blog. It was so nice to hear from you again. Love, Carolyn

Hi Phyllis. I really like the way you present contrasting ideas to create a sense of that "in between" place of dreams. Thanks for the journey. Cheers, ~Soulfire~
