When dreaming from this world I fly Away, away from day of real From bodies hold I wave goodbye To search and find my hearts fulfil In day life gives its ups and downs In battle we survive till end We wear the joy and hardship crowns While braving what dear fate does send The mind it wavers off the path In wonder seeing more than be While daydream with its voice may laugh The truth of day we all must see The hours pass, but long they seem Till daylight fades and peace the night I rest to sleep and then the dream That brings me peace and heart’s delight |

Very beautiful, dear Rick. Dreams, whether during the night or throughout the days, help us to find balance, I am sure. And they also can project us into very real deeds ... Love, Margherita |

Dear Margherita, always so very lovely to see you here my friend, dreamland is so free from daily troubles and full of beauty seeds, each time I visit one grows into an adventure and wonderful time. Thanks for you visit and reply Margherita, have a great day ahead. Rick |

I dare to dream!  My dreams ~ both day and night ~ are in technicolour. Even problems that I have during my waking hours can be solved in my dreams. Before I go to sleep at night, I try to put myself in a beautiful place and visualize the beauty around me. It helps me have pleasant dreams. I thoroughly enjoyed your 'dreamy' poem, dear Rick! Sweet dreams!   Linda |

Dreams are always fun to explore. I myself am a guy who loves to dream. Even if I have a nightmare, I seem to love to explore more in the depths. Loved this, Rick. Your poetry has been missed over here. ARCTIC WIND |

Geesh Rick, I do not think I have read any of your peosm here on Pip because I am new. But I will certainly be going back to read many more. This poem was just wonderful! Actually, I just wrote a poem a couple of days ago on a subject similar for my new book "Gentle Tugs; life, love and other addictions" I will post it in a few days. We were certainly thinking along the same vein Jan Jan |
