The Boy, the Poet,The Dream

Asleep, he did indeed look. The pajamed boy, reading his poetry book. Of the forty poems, he did indeed write! Nothing trite, but his dreams of future might. His dog, faithful and true, did quietly lay. On a royal blue carpet, that had not a fray. That scene, so simple, lives on in my life forever. A gentle boy, who would achieve his fondest endeavors. The world, I knew, held much hope ahead, in God’s hands. His sunshine blesses people in all the lands. 10/23/2021

Thanks Madelyn. It's weird here. hateful cartoons get five hundred reads. People who write well don't get read much. Well, you do IF you are popular and write on anything. I mean poetry about water closets. It's depressing. Thank you for a positive word. One liners are popular here, ?? Pangie

Very nicely said; I am reminded of Stevenson's "Good boy. Beautiful, sensitive write: "The world, I knew, held much hope ahead, in God’s hands. His sunshine blesses people in all the lands." Beautiful!

Hello Panagiota, the boy enjoyed to read all the poetry he had written. With the comfort of his dog by his side. Hugs.

this is tender and sweet. Was it a boy you knew? A picture? A story? Also for me this is a metaphor of a better life.
