In My Dreams

Mountains stand like sentinels
Reaching for the edge of the sea
Keeping ever watchful eyes over me
I whisper my dreams into blue skies
As I watch the new upcoming  dawn
Morning sun wraps me in her warmth
Closing my eyes I drift into the sun
Riding on the wings of an angel
I float and break free going
where dreams are meant to be
On the breath of the wind
With wings of silk the magical air
 nurtured my spirit
 Soothes my weary soul
In my triumphs,  my defeats
In battles won and ones lost
I dream on the rivers of time
As feelings of peace overcomes.

this is a really good one on dreams. I thought by now I would have reached where I left off with all your poems, but no, I am still going!! I hope you enter some of your poems one day into the contests. this one, for example, would fit so well into a contest about dreams.

Your words fill the heart and roll gently off the tongue drifting quietly into memory. Emile.
