When You Wish

my pen this night is weak my thoughts though strong are meek my dreams are dreams and that's all that they are but until i make them come to life they are as far away as the stars stars at night are so numerous i can not count also are my dreams an unset amount the stars twinkle and move across my sky and my dreams they shine and delight my mind one star that is present it is my sun my dream ever present is the only one the sun it warms me on winters day my dream warms me in various other ways when the world turns and my sun appears to go away my dream is scattered across the milky way i count the stars and dreams alike beautiful visions of my delight but dreams are all they are until i bring them life a dawning star and bright day light my heart and mind wish with all their might that i would bring my dream into the light "I wish I may, I wish I might have this wish I make tonight." and with the rising of the sun dream and star become as one

John I read the beautiful comment you made on my poem 'Messages from HEAVEN' and that was hard. Then I read this poem and the tears flowed. The 7th of July it will be 5 years since Billy went to his reward. I don't look forward to that day but it will be our oldest daughter's 51 birthday so I have to concentrate on that. God Bless, Cile

Thank you for taking on the line of your thoughts as you write this great poem. Splendid imagery expresses them well. It is good to dream but indeed that is all they are until we bring them to life. Inspiring. Thanks for sharing and thank you for your comments on my poem. I found that to be the opposite for me. I was bound before I found God. After, I found liberation. Best wishes, Caroline.

Beautiful poem. it all floats together to create an imagery of your cherished& starlit dreams. your words make me believe you as a person who can make his/her come true in the way they want it, because they say it in such a powerful and beautiful way. -Always Lynette
