Best Life Is But A Dream Poems


Premium Member Life Is Not a Dream
I still recall my earliest of dreams
Those summer afternoons spent in the shade
A grass stained T-shirt, old cut off blue jeans
A pickle jar filled with cold lemonade

I never once believed they would come true
I guess that you might say those dreams were free
The reason why...

Premium Member Life Is But a Dream
cajoled by love divine sublime
our soul ascends in timeless time
why fret when we are in a dream
delighting in images that stream
hark, oh hermit, to our hearts chime

Life Is But a Dream
Is this life but a dream? 
I once wondered to myself, in this life
Will we really find true happiness,
A place to which we can escape,
A place where there are no worries of the future,
Where we, once again, may envision life with the naivety of a...

Premium Member To Touch a Dream
Dreams come in many forms
Some are cold and others warm

Some play like a movie in black and white
And some are no less than a guiding light

Some are visions of times to come
Some just simply leave us numb

Some we remember and some we forget
Some we cherish...

Premium Member Ballade of Eternal Bliss
Here the sun shines soft and warm—
Caressing all in vales and on hill—
It gives a glow to every inherent form—
And reveals for every eye a thrill.
Of here they never get their fill—
For this is Bliss, an endless treasure—
Where our dream is the Lord’s will—
And God...

My Mom
Dear God, how did You sleep.
I had a dream and it made me weep.
Did You see it, it was so real.
I think it might even help me heal.

Anyway that dream last night 
sure was kind of cool.
Except for the times  
I acted the fool.

I...

Sky Blue Daydream of a Distant Life
A firestorm of fleeing grace,
A holy aria from its base,
Its mem'ry will not be erased
From you.

The shifting shards of fate and chance,
The phosphorescent great expanse,
It all together seems to dance
For you.

A dream that stood a hundred years,
That, when it died appeared in tears,
And exiled all...

Dreams
Imagine that you had something,
Imagine that you had.
Not knowing it would come to be,
But then you might be glad.

Yet now you think what it would do,
Yet now you wouldn't know.
Until you do you never know,
Of how you'd need to grow.

But when a dream does come...

With Your Pen Tonight
Paint me my dream with your pen tonight,
my special place, where everything is right.
Velvet so soft for bare feet to tread,
pillows of clouds for my weary head.
Champagne falls to swim, and bath,
my house of stars, that will never fade.
A pathway so safe, to stroll each...

I Too Have a Dream
Just like Dr. KIng I too have a dream
I have a dream that one day children of all ages and colors will receive a better 
education
Where they will one day have a better life after graduation
These students will hold their heads up high whether they...

Premium Member The Photographer's Dream
A photographer dreamed 
Of a telephoto lens 
Capturing light waves  
From beginning to end.
Since time unleashed 
When the Big Bang leaped 
And particles began life’s history 
In swirling clouds he wondered how 
He might picture a piece of the mystery.
Through polished glass converging past
Planets,...

   "A Vision of Existence - Baby Style"



my eyes blink within a cushioned comfort zone
fingers and toes cling to tender warm insides
I tend to dream of bicycles when I birth flesh and bone
or a pink doll house where a loving family abides.

Premium Member In a Heartbeat
I drove down to Virginia to a place I was before
Stared out at the horizon, waves crashing against the shore
And dreamed of days long past 
Wishing I could sail once more
Feel the salty breeze against my face
Not knowing what I was looking for
The dreams I...

Premium Member Life Bubbles of Joy
~The fount of life’s bubbles having a desire to be, becomes many bubbles 
of love’s own state or desire to continue. Life bubbles into four seasons for 
reasons of changes preventing mere human concepts from becoming obsolete 
conservations in control. As life's being bubbles forth...

Lost a Dream
Lost a dream did I,
the only dream ever had I.
How happy would I,
happy on my wedding day
if ever had I,
a diamond on my finger.

Lost a dream did I,
the day he proposed to I,
I looked at him in the eye,
and said I wasn't ready
he cried to...
