Dreaming

Dreaming of all the lovely things I when asleep travel through life pausing to take things into my heart It could be something very simple Maybe the way a tree bends or a crooked flower whipping about in a strong breeze each has its own beauty The top of a mountain that shows a stunning vista making your heart beat faster as you drink it in with wonder As you awake refreshed you relive it once more maybe wishing you were there amid all the wonderous dreams Yet you were and you take the best with you seeing them all over again

Dearest Shadow, I just had to read your poem because one of my deepest passions is to go in and out of sleep in the early morning hours. That is when I dream and remember them. And yet, I also loved that aspect that going into nature to find the great beauty that surrounds our lives is worth every second. Lovely!! Thanks for keeping the dreams alive in poetry. - Blessings, My Dear Friend, Daniel

Dear shadow! I really love this poem of yours how youv written in such a descriptive and moving manner about dreaming and more! So well crafted that mountain top line resonates with me and my heart did beat faster as i read that line. And i love the openin too. And yes sometimes we all feel that way, we were there amidst all wonderous dreams. There are times i wake up from a beautiful dream and just wanna go back there haha! Love this! Fave it is! Sending you light always
