Lovely As a Lovely Dream

Lovely as a Lovely Dream

A poem lovely as a dream
Harvest of day's memory stream.

Sometimes flying on wings of grace
Remembering a loved one’s face

Idea’s vision born at night
As untold plans, unveiled, take flight

Unspoken places of the heart
Reveal their hopes for love’s new start

Unwritten songs, unspoken rhymes
Find their voices as inspired chimes

Healing, peaceful, these newborn dreams
Reveries with possible teems.

Lovely! I love the entire poem, but this really stood out to me, "Unwritten songs, unspoken rhymes Find their voices as inspired chimes" This is a wonderful poem! ~BJ

Oh, thank you so much BJ! I have to admit that is also one of my favorite lines! Had a hard time deciding on a theme - so many ways to go but, ultimately, the power of lovely dream came to the top of the idea pile! I am so glad this poem touched your heart. Sending you blessings for the fruition of all of your "unwritten songs - unspoken rhymes."
