Vijay Pandit Poet Free verse

That Is the Dream I Have

Being the lone cause, I admit fault 
Accepting blame for our recent past
For I was the one churning atmosphere
Blowing into winds dusty hot air
Watching it become a tornado,

Leaving you to face the storm alone
Creating a vacuum that swallowed you.

But the sky's blue, dread has passed
Rain departed breaking dark clouds
Vanquishing remnants of misty thoughts
That ravaged your pristine grounds.

Flooding the horizon with twilight
Pouring colors on silky canvas
Evening has made festive plans
Inviting presence of celestial stars,

And I have joined the entourage,
Millions of twinkling lights above
Guiding the night to brand new start
As you welcome me with open arms.

That is the dream I have.

Valsa George July 4, 2023 at 8:53 AM Repentance and confession always will wash away past mistakes. Again a new dawn of hope awaits for a fresh beginning.... to be reconciled and start all over again. Beautiful poem dear Vijay.

Daniel Turner March 21, 2018 at 9:39 PM Vijay, once a person chokes down their pride and opens their mind, forgiveness comes a lot easier. I have had similar dreams but none of them ended with open arms, mine were more like nightmares. I like that the poem ends on a positive turn.
