Violet Dreams

Echoes of a long, lost past
     resound in our souls
Dreams of violet make themselves 
    known 
in the center of our beings
  One taste of a violet sky 
     is enough to shake up
the very core of our being 
Through a gauzy haze of violet
    we see 
           the vague outlines of the future
No one is certain of what
      tomorrow will bring 
  If you want to 
       you can travel down the path 
with us 
   where poetic sensibilities 
meet with cold realities 
 Let's hope we'll come out on top

Hi Matthew...nostalgic images resonate in this violet dream...I do believe in dreams as a way of communicating...It has happened to me quite powerfully when I was 14 and then again when I was in my 30's...both were signs from God about the future...He said I better get ready and quit wastin' time...Enjoyed your latest posting...Happy Friday! gwendolen
