Snapping Branches

my desires hang golden like autumn’s leaves dancing on the edge of dreams snap of reality sends them crashing back down grounded until the next winded thought sends them adrift again

Excellent, short and emotionally brush stroked with impact-feelings that resonated with me. I wish I could personally lift your thoughts despite admiring all your free verse. I want to hand you a bright, mesmerizing color of joy but I don't know how. Great poem. Poetry hugs ... CayCay

I have a thought...Swooooosh...that was a winded thought. Hope it helps send your dreams dancing again my friend. This was light, happy, smile producing poem. Never stop dreaming, never stop believing.

It turned out beautifully Sandy. You could write a poem with a rock on a sidewalk and it would still be beautiful I would think.
