Dreams Do Come True

Who ever declared they cannot?
Is a full blown, liar I promise you.
In their lives, they failed at some task.
And now?
The unmitigated gall, to drag you
into heartbreak row?

Do not buy losers' stories!
To those with fortitude and gall ~comes 
a different story.

One where there was loss and
then came glory.
I have experienced this myself
and know the joys of victory.

Odds are many poets are just like me.
Not weeping over lost loves with
a handkerchief under an old tree.
But finding new love, better than
they ever dreamed would be.

Their lives exceeded their original
schemes.
They go on and envision new dreams 

Their truest friends stand by them
whilst their phony friends stroll so
casually and heartlessly away.

But, dear friends, know, please.
The dreamers will out do you in
every, conceivable way and with
the greatest possible ease!

      GO DREAMERS!

Hello my friend, Gina! So gracious of you to comment and to share with me! Glad that you, Gina, are a dreamer, too. Life without God plus our dreams is such a huge plus! I was fortunate enough to have great mentors along Life's path that supported me in my dreams. I have a few at PS who constantly enlighten me. I do have a special place in my heart for you and all like you, who keep me going. Thanks with love, Panagiota
