To give our world Its tranquil start True peace begins Within EACH heart For crucial answers That hate compels We need not look Beyond ourselves And every question We humans ask Demands no more Than honest task Oh, what a world Created, thus ... If we all expected Much MORE of US.

So have you had flying dreams at least a few times in the last ten years?I have not had them any more since my youth. Glad you could relate to my poem. Let me read this one now.

Every so often, Andrea, but it's usually about floating, not very far off the ground, or about NOT being able to get off the ground - very frustrating! The ones of late I'm flying a plane, I haven't really soared myself for many years,

(except once a couple of years ago that I must write about - it was beyond extraordinary, and I had the answers to controlling gravity, going beyond light speed, formulas and equations I could see so easily! As soon as I woke it was gone, but I flew in that one - that was the last time).

Simply beautiful writing of truth Greg, I enjoy your deep writes, your simple but meaningful writes like this one. You seem to be able to express what I'm thinking and feeling, poetic kinship I guess!

We certainly are on the same wavelength, my friend, and see so much the same way. That's a GOOD thing, I believe - perhaps brothers in another life, or buds on a higher plane, ha! Thanks again, buddy! :-)

I REALLY loved this write, so simple and right to the point, and such an awesome point it is! I believe that this is what poetry should look like, such a beautiful rhyming scheme and the flow of it is very good, you can read this out loud with the greatest of ease! What a masterful piece Greg! Great Work!!
