Notes About The Poem

" DREAMS " MY PHOTO, ©

Resolutions Vii

A sponge,
I will take into my hands and dip it
into water.

For a while, I will let it soak
till
its thirst manages, finally, to quench
and then, with it,
all little things that have bothered me for years
with a single stroke, from my memory,
I would erase.

Things that in the past, 
have hindered my efforts to advance,
so 
from inaction's dungeons, my imprisoned mind to liberate
allowing it, with new energy, forward to move at  
an increasing pace
for
all my slumbering dreams, at last, to awake 
and 
the goals of my destiny I, eventually, to reach!
