Of The Night ~*Marge Tindal*~ Dreams are not just phantoms of the night They are the wishes within the soul of daylight visions With waking thought I yearn for you The eagerness of the night dreams you into being ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ noles1@totcon.com |

Marge, this is a beautiful poem. I know a lot about dreaming, and your writing is so true... great job. "We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars." -Oscar Wilde |

Tell Marge I love this! I love dreaming too! So to me a poem about a dream has to be pretty special! Tell Marge thanks for sharing this gem. Love and hugs, Lizzie "Poetry is the true expression of my soul, it is my ultimate means of communication. It is my rainbow of delight." |

~Marge~ Dear, I agree totally! I am sorry I have been away for the last few days. I was out sick. You know how the hot/cold weather affects your sinuses. But I am back now, and I know I have a few days worth of catching up to do! Love ya~ Terry ~you reached inside, you touched my heart, and I am all the better for it~ Terry A. Woodson, Jr. |

Marge, I am a friend of TerryW's. He told me about passions, and told me I should check it out. He also said that I had to read a few special people's work, and yours was at the top of the list. I can see why. He was right. You are great! Trust Instinct. Instinct will keep an animal alive, but Logic can kill a man. Richard "Rickey" N. Boydstun, Jr. |

Denise~ Yep, those dreams are for everyone. Alwye~ I'm so pleased that you enjoyed it. Balladeer~ Thank you, sweetie. Roy and I would just have to agree on the 'thoughts', too. Serenity~ What a doll you are. This lady greatly appreciates you. Martie~ Sometimes I wonder if I 'dream' while I'm awake ... as I seem to spend more time in that mode. Thanks, gal. TerryW~ Hello, love. You were missed. Thanks ... and GOOD to see your smiling face. Tears~ Awwwwww ! Is he just the greatest, or what? Thank you, Rickey. Enjoy your stay with us. Love to all~ ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ noles1@totcon.com |

Wasn't it Tennyson who wrote, "To Sleep I give my powers away."? In dream, we allow ourselves to fully live, I think, unrestrained, unrestricted, unchecked. So very real, they can be. So lovely, this gifting, Marge, and I thank you. ~ Claire Could a greater miracle take place than for us to look through each other's eyes for an instant?......Henry David Thoreau |

I loved this poem. Makes you think do you dream what you want? Sometimes subconciously I believe we do. Thanks for the inspiration and enjoyed it so. |

Marge, this is simple truth, I've often thought that about dreams, but on a sanity level I thought that maybe the brain was just trying to deal with all the images so our heads wont expload. But I like the first idea much nicer. Parker |

RoseBud~ Thank you. Well, your reasoning would give credence to the saying, 'A dream is a wish your heart makes ... when you're fast asleep.' Parker~ SMILES ! I'm sure that our dreams serve a very real purpose ... never quite thought of them as 'defusing' our heads ! Could be. Love to all ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ noles1@totcon.com |
