And so it will be; the naïve must believe because they want to I guess and suppose that an emotional feel is the truth but it really belongs in a bucket of useless dreams and beliefs. I’ve always thought like attracts like in a dreamer’s unseen universe but now I know it’s only a wish to see good where evil exists that breeds and feeds into reality the hope and needs of lovers like me. Once, twice, and a million times the absorption of this energy brings the dream of fulfilling love’s need to the forefront of everyday life until a silent explosion finds me on my hands and knees picking up and putting the pieces into a bucket of useless dreams. Don’t lean on the bucket, dear, don’t lean on it at all because then my dream will land on the floor and stick to my feet evermore. “Oops!” Helen / 23 April 2006 |

Yeah - there's always somebody knocking over a bucket somewhere in this big wide world. Thanks, Dixie. |

My bucket has holes in it Honeybunch but I always seem to have a few pieces to big to fall out. Enjoyed! :-) |

Hi, Steven. Hmm? If nothing falls out the bucket then it means (according to my write) that they remain useless and I know that's not what you mean. The trick is to keep them away from the bucket so that they have some force and effect in our lives and don't weigh our feet down. |
