My Dream Within A Dream

Poetry Contest

Sponsored by: Constance La France

 ~ In the back of my mind, in a filing cabinet, I hold my dreams...
                                     sealed until my death ~ quote by poet


  Dreams are as golden seeds
  a source of reflection
      It is incredibly
      liberating to escape
      from the reality
  Fly with your imagination
  stimulate human growth
     in a safe atmosphere

  A fragrance of a dream
    even in a waking state
  I plant dream seeds for joy
          as far as possible
  The ability to daydream
  My previous life story
  with different approaches
        deep or superficial
  with roots in life situation

  The future of the past
    with airy butterfly wings
  I'm protecting my dreams
  they can disappear in a flash
        My dream is still alive
    deeply rooted in the heart
        Locked in my diary
           you will never find the key

Loved your initial quote as a lead into your poem. Your poem was soft and dreamy in its delivery. I especially liked the last verse. Best wishes with the contest, hugs, Sara
