Infinite Desires and Hopes In Infinite Streams

Infinite Desires And Hopes In Infinite Streams Through the long night, sleepy dreams flying high, with power greater than a billion stars. Before morn, happiness found in sleeping sighs dawn's light will appear greater than a pulsar illuminating earthly views filtered by human brain. Made humanly possible by Nature's earth wind and rain. When we think our end time has come nigh, that greatest fear suddenly looms large. Oft we look and think of resting place in the sky, where all truth, joy and happiness are in charge. Left far behind, horrors of our short earthen stains buried long and deep with our earthly remains. What truth comes forth in such wishful night dreams, cherished desires and hopes in those infinite streams. R.J. Lindley October 17th, 1981

A beautiful sonnet Robert. This sums up life pretty well in 14 lines. Hopes, desires, dreams, discouragement and new hope. Well done! -- Dean
