Here we all are living, within a spans of time
Finding there are good times and others not so fine
But weather we are sleeping or living wide awake
There’s something in each one of us that guides the life we make

It sits on the horizon, just a mile or two away
And with the pot of gold that temps as rainbow lights display
It’s something made from wishes that we all would long to be
It’s what keeps people going, a gift that sets them free

It may be just a little wish that keeps us going on
A hint of what a new day brings, to make that we belong
It may be that tomorrow brings a rest of well deserved
That truth will be the turning key to free the soul reserved

A dream or say a fantasy of mind to vision’s eye
That pushes you that little more and makes you want to try
That lets you find what’s hidden within a sacred place
Dreaming past the boundaries where there’s happiness to chase

A land that offers hope and love, a place to be at rest
To be but in a moments trance and with the dreams of best
They make the dark much brighter, life’s journey joyous filled
An offered warmth to wishful thoughts that day to day had killed

It hurts no one and helps us all, to vision on a dream
To find yourself in neverland where wondrous things are seen
To play the role of thoughts that tempt and parts of just a wish
They are the things that life may cloud but we all seem to miss

Thank you all my friends, it is always very nice to be with you all, I have been so busy of late with not much time to do the things that I enjoy, I must try and make more of an effort in the future. Thanks for your replies.

You're all great.
xx

Sincerely
Rick
