I am grateful knowing we are all human beings…

Dreams

A dream is but a thought

Laid out like a movie

They're there for you to absorb

Like a mind smoothie

Dreams are a message

In a hidden format

We try to decode them

But that is a skill we lack

Ink Into Wine

Strength in the format,
  couplets have power

Magic in tandem,
 —mine becomes ours

Marriage so faithful,
  words intertwine

Together transformed,
 —ink into wine
