Richard Lamoureux Poet Quatrain

The Fixer

I'm known as the fixer
The collector of broken dreams
Setting the pieces like a puzzle
I put gold between the seams

All your thoughts within my reach
I look deep within your mind
That's where the hopes and dreams hide
What I seek I'm sure to find

Dreams you thought impossible 
Abandoned to yesterday
Come to life with a single thought
With a whisper I show the way

I truly am the fixer
The repairer of broken dreams
Setting the pieces like a puzzle
I put gold between the seams

You don't need to walk away
This dreaming's not a joke
If you choose to give up faith
Dreams will surely turn to smoke

When you're lost within lifes shadows
And you're feeling coloured blind
I'll open up the door a crack
So that light can flood your mind

Because I am the fixer
The repairer of broken dreams
I see your puzzle pieces
I put gold between the seams

Now you have possibilities
When you start you must follow through
Living your dreams is better
Just believe and they'll come true

I'll help you find the answers
Those gems hidden within your soul
You have an important part to play
It's time to take on your role

For you too are a fixer
A repairer of broken dreams
Setting the pieces like a puzzle
You put gold between the seams

Setting the pieces like a puzzle
You put gold between the seams

Cherl Dunn January 13, 2015 at 12:50 PM This is a very thought provoking write, it makes one ponder many things and I can appricate all these elements of emotions that you ask us to think about the puzzle of our lives becomes very clear in this work, and how we much at times patch our world together, cheri Richard Lamoureux January 18, 2015 at 8:47 AM What a thoughtful comment, thanks Cheri.

Monterey Sirak January 12, 2015 at 3:55 PM My first thought when I read this was that you were talking about God. How if we have faith he can light up our darkness, mend our broken hearts, patch together our dreams. This is awesome! Richard Lamoureux January 18, 2015 at 8:46 AM Thanks, perhaps it's our God working within us to help us and others reach towards our dreams.

Eileen Manassian January 11, 2015 at 4:22 PM I sure could use your help, Mr Fixer...See, I have this dream of one day becoming a famous poetess. Before I die...I want to have my name on a book of poetry....I've taken a knock or two about my work, Mr Fixer...my dream seams a bit broken at the time...Got any of that gold left? You are a sweet poet, Richard. A kind man...Bless you. Eileen Manassian January 11, 2015 at 4:48 PM Well, you lived up to your name, Mr Fixer Man. Once my thesis on collaborative writing is done...I'll go for it. Hugs Richard Lamoureux January 11, 2015 at 4:39 PM Your talent is undeniable and the book is already written. All you need to do is compile the pages. The part that currently is lacking is the belief in yourself. This surprises me considering how talented you are. A great place to start is with a company called Book Baby, you can produce an e-book for as little as $150.00 and it can be purchased anywhere in the world. Go for it!

Paul Callus January 10, 2015 at 8:28 AM Hi Richard...I can imagine you as a councilor, giving advice to those in need. A helping hand can work wonders! // paul Richard Lamoureux January 10, 2015 at 8:58 AM I am always willing to lend an ear. It's amazing how most people posses their own answers and simply by being heard they find the clarity they were seeking.

Demetrios Trifiatis January 9, 2015 at 10:32 AM Melodious inspiring verses in search of music! I am certain you will fix it and it will be a tremendous success, dear Richard! Great! Richard Lamoureux January 9, 2015 at 2:49 PM I've never had my words attached to music before so I am looking forward to hearing what he comes up with.

Richard Lamoureux January 9, 2015 at 10:20 AM Sorry I am short on time but wish to thank all of you for posting comments on my poem. I am working with a musician to see if this piece has the makings of a song.

David Meade January 8, 2015 at 12:32 PM Fixer indeed -- what I like is that we all help each other achieve our dreams. It's never a solo act but team work . . . that is a refreshing feeling. Nicely done Richard, 7
