On the far horizon the dream still glimmers, Though, like a mirage, it shifts and shimmers as it dances o'er the sands of time into a starry night sublime... where I will follow. Ida Werrett [This message has been edited by Marchmadness (11-17-2009 03:47 PM).] |

Dear Ida, this short and poignant piece is evocative of one of my favourite songs: Moon River. Keep following that path. Peace Jim "We are stardust: we are golden: and we've got to get ourselves back to the garden." --Joni Mitchell "Woodstock" |

MarchMadness - A vivid dream has a magnetism. Even when it loses its clarity and shimmers, we are still drawn to it to reestablish the lost focus that first pulled us. Very nice work Ida. Namyh |

..."into a starry night sublime" Short and sweet this one. Magical, and woven with strands of star dust, just the way dreams should be, and close enough to touch! Karen |

This is great, Ida. I guess we all follow our dreams because they're so much quicker than us. It can seem like an eternity before we catch up with them but I suspect that we lay the groundwork now for a future lifetime if such a thing be. Helen |
