Do Dreams Really Die? What is a dream, if not hope incarnate? It comes to us, again and again even when we cannot relate and all we wonder is if the pain, so real, will leave, and when. A dream scorned, ridiculed, beaten down underneath scowls or frightening frowns. What was my dream, do I even remember? It comes to me, again and again, even when I cannot relate and I wonder if the pain, so real, will leave, and when. Was it hope that brought forth my dreams? Will I ever believe in hope again? What was your dream, do you even remember? Does it ever come to you, again and again, even when you cannot relate and you wonder if the pain, so real, will leave, and when. Dare we? Dare you? Dare I? Dare we hope to learn, hope to try, hope to dream again? I will. 27 August, 1999 ©KRJ ------------------ Sunshine Words will always express our feelings true. ~~~ KRJ Look, then, into thine heart, and write ~~~ Henry Wadsworth Longfellow |

Dreams are the seeds of reality, nurture them with hope and love... if not, they will surly die and so will you. Such are my thoughts. A fine poem sunshine. Thanks for sharing and making me think. |

Great work Sunshine. I can relate to this more than I'd like to admit right now. I'll share more with you later...check your e-mail for details. But thanks, I guess somewhere we all know hope is never completely gone. ------------------ Julie ------------------------- Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate.
