A Dream’s a Dream I soared the sky on wings of dreams With eye upon a star Following the misty beams To visions from afar Hurricane and storm and wind What pain God may impart Were weathered by the strength within And yearnings of the heart The sunny days of happiness The days of dark and strife Were all consumed with eye above Toward dreams of better life With eye turned upward every night In view of distant sun That far celestial star so bright A dream I could have won But I was always drawn back down By forces from below It seems that voices on the ground Would keep my gliding low With blemished quill and battered wing I left those dreams above For I couldn’t vision anything More real than family’s love A dreams a dream, but I would find Those things of greatest worth Are in a little child’s mind And live right here on earth Elizabeth Santos |

Dear Liz; this is alovely, lovely poem. I have 6 children, so I know from where you are coming in this poem, that could only be written, and beautifully, from a mothers heart. Ellie 02 |

Oh Liz - this is exquisite, it says to me that no matter what, nothing in this world or beyond it is more precious than the love of our children. God has blessed mothers and fathers with the simplest of gifts, our babies - what a plan! And he has surely blessed you with the power of beautiful expression. |
