Notes About The Poem
Inspiration that comes from my soul. I will do what I need to until my purpose is met..in the meantime, my dreams inspire me that there are still miracles happening every day..never take life for granted..Still fighting with love in my heart... Buffy..

Dreams

Dreams...
By Buffy Sammons.. In In my  dreams,  I  am laughing,  smiling, joking and walking fast and tall.
I never lose  my stride,  as I'm holding your hand, without fear of  a fall... 
You  hold me  tight  as  if you are wrapping wings around  my heart...
Like my own  private secret secret-service  angel  that will  never let me fall apart... 
If only the dreams  would never end and I  could stay.. 
In the fantasy of you and I being wild and free as the wind blows warm as if to make our worries  fade away... Sometimes I dream of  loved  ones lost, as we  sit  together and talk like old  times, no pain just conversing, laughing,  and  having fun... 
Other times  its  my bucket list that I share  with you, as we float in  a warm pool with my  tropical umbrella drink in hand soaking in the Hawaiian sun... 
Not a care in the world as everything is  beautiful and Grand...
As  I  look  at  natures wonders, and  bury my  feet into the warm  white sand... Sometimes we take flight along the shores looking down at the  water, so crystal clear and blue... 
On a zip line in this magical place, that  was made especially for two... 
How do I stay in the  slumber of soft, beautiful, heavenly  memories ,both from the past, and some that  I know will never be... But I have to accept that when I awake  there is a reason that  I'm still here as I look up and I see... 
The  wheelchair near  the bed that are  basically chained to  me each and every day... 
I'll deal with the hand  that God dealt to me,  because  there is a  reason I wake up again each day and can truthfully say... 
When the dreams  don't  stop one day and I  don't awaken from  my  sleep...
It will mean that my purpose was fulfilled  and I will take my final rest knowing that it's  no longer a dream, as I  pray to the Lord my  soul to keep.. 
I will be reunited with those loved and lost in  my life that I really still  love and miss... 
And  from the heavens I will take the seat  being saved, as I send  my loved ones a final kiss... 
I sincerely send my  Love to you all... 
For always keeping me from fear of the fall...

Lovely imagery Buffy :) You focus on those dreams...I believe that as believers dreams can be a connection to our spirit, and the loved ones waiting for us. Easy for me to say as I am healthy, but Paul said it best in Philippians 4..."for I have learned, in whatsoever state I am , therewith to be content." ...sounds like your lovely soul understands that :) ...try to think of it as a rise instead of a fall and keep the faith.

Buffy, Your musings are full of details not realized or recognized by people such as myself. While my heart was caught up in your muses (I experienced powerful introspections) my mind became a little distracted and tugged at my heart at times. Sometimes the rhyme seems a little forced, and sometimes the meter seems inconsistent. Would you be willing to express this poem in free verse. I would love to see your other poems in free verse, without rhyme or meter. Your muses are beautiful.

Wonderful dreams. I try playing, living somewhat similarly, enjoying life. All my admiration. Be blessed.

Your poem is very touching. I also dream at night, and sometimes my dreams are exciting and vivid. I am sorry that you have to be in a wheelchair. I have my own disabilities. May the Lord bless you each and every day, until he meets you in Paradise.
