Dreams

Is a dream simply a fancy flow? like a river with no real place to go: back and forth, all depth, mere illusion of mind~ is a dream only the residue of rich pastries, with a sour belch of wine? Does a dream ever escape, enter the world of touchy-feely; bring that secret, unrequited love, to the flesh and blood of your longing arms, from the mists of almost nearly? Can one lead to wealth, a succession of fear, the nightmare dealt with and gone? Be then, such sleep welcomed...and choose then wisely... those good~ dreams to live on.

Your imagery is very nice, Joe. I loved the comparison of a dream to a river, and your thoughts on dreams escaping to the world of touchy-feely. As for myself, I believe that dreams can absolutely come true. A wonderful poem. Evelyn

i am not sure that our dreams magically become real but I think we can turn a dream into reality if we make the effort. Your poem is thought provoking Joe. I really like it.

Dream it...focus in real life~ and maybe bring that wondrous vision into reality; you may have the secret. Wishing all your good dreams come true. Blessings my friend.

Much to gleam from this discourse on dreams you convey, Joe. Dreams are complex, like life tends to be. Many times pleasant and charming, but sometimes like you describe: only the residue of rich pastries...Your poem gives me something to ponder further.
