Notes About The Poem

May 2, 2024

Each line 10 syllables.

Dreams Soar

When I open my eyes at quiet dawn,
I see my dreams soar in the horizon.

If my dreams, soft as petals of flower,
luminous, scintillating, bright they are,
They shine in their captivating bower,
my dreams waft me away to distant far!
If my dreams flow like a humming river,
ridged rough hard pebbles are no barrier,
To meet mighty ocean it travels far
through steep hills and abundant plains, wander ! 

Part of our existence - magical dreams,
float and cruise like sailboats in the vast sea,
shine as rainbow, meandering like streams.
I hold them to my heart and set them free.

I love the final line: it really brings the point home that we can't hold on to dreams, but the imprint is in our hearts. Love this write, Mala :)

Thanks, Karen. This poem has been written by a mistake. I was trying to write a sonnet for Constance …totally forgot she has a specific theme! Appreciate your kind comment.
