Concrete Dream Concerto

to build
     then allow balloons
            to dance in the sky

stairsteps
     on their way
            to Elysian fields' delight

rock or granite
     offering a foothold
            to heavenly skies of blue

a man's gift
     to hold in soft regard
            all of the dreams within you

feet on the ground
     holding love in one's heart
            and a song to long cling onto

stairstep
     one to heaven
            with a melody on your lips

stand solid
     allowing one to dream
            then loving words will slip

be the rock
     to step one to the sky
            to play the music of one's soul

a concrete dream concerto

Yes it's the excellent beginning of a concerto...the musical dreams of the breath of existence no matter where you are.........as usual a very creative write!

Reality seldom bears the possibilities of imagination!

..."the music of the soul"

May it always sing for you clear, unimpeded, bright.

I do like this piece.
