You Still Come Around ~*Marge Tindal*~ Though you may be long gone For you had to move on You still come around in my dreams In moments of slumber into my thoughts you wander You still come around in my dreams You're not really here but the memories are near cascading you into my dreams In quietude of nightly scenes you move so softly through my dreams Awakening with the fear you are no longer here I retreat to the land of my dreams My comfort is found having you still around Welcome to the land of my dreams *Inspired by JMLee12345's 'In Dreams' Thank you, my friend. ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ noles1@totcon.com |

Marge.. those dreams keep coming around and the effect they have is unconditional with the heart....the heart rules in the land of dreams where it's just a step between reality and the dreams of the heart. Wonderful writing Marge! You got it right! |

Hold's breath and reads again... "In quietude of nightly scenes you move so softly through my dreams" Oh boy..... Why couldn't I think of that instead of only dreaming it?.. Superb lines here Marge, superb ! HUSG "If you have built castles in the air, your work need not be lost; that is where they should be. Now put the foundations under them." |

Well, there I was, Marge, in your dreams, just floating overhead While staring at your loveliness there lying on the bed Your vision made my spirit rise to see you stretched out there. It rose so much I had a hard time floating in the air!!! I wanted to drop from the air and settle by your side Then put my arms around you, dear, and take you for my bride And tell you you're the only one that my heart will adore But I am forced to say instead, "Forget it, Marge! You snore!!!" |

Marge, THis was lovely. Dreams are wonderful things, a place to relive memories and you captured this so well. "A clay pot sitting in the sun will always be a clay pot. It has to go through the white heat of the furnace to become porcelain." --Mildred W. St |

Marge has no fear of losing her muse Not even miss it when it takes a hike It is the muse of life the one she will use And pen a beauty...one we all will like Wisdom and grace are close to her hand Wit and fun join in her little dance To write a verse that will sweep the land All she needs is a moment to chance. Your dreams have got to keep you awake at night.....they seem so busy and your muse is like a scout....searching into even the smallest of things....(carpet samples for one)LOL |

Paula~ The dreams do take us where we want to be, don't they ? Thank you for your reply. Lucky~ Hi, luv. Good to see you in the hours of your musing. Will anticipate the 'e'... Elizabeth~ Thanks for letting me know you enjoyed. You know me ... it flies to the page and there it lays. It finds it's own pattern. Glad it appeals to you. Tess~ Seems that 'dreams' are the plans of the night ... waiting for a place to happen. Thanks for enjoying. Linda~ Oh, so pleased to be your breakfast companion. Thank you. James~ We always need someone to feed our inspiration. I'm pleased to know you enjoyed it. I may never have had that particular thought had I not found it in your poem. Thank you again. MarkB~ LOL @ your wit ! And your talent. Thank you, my friend. Gosh, Mark ... I don't have time to 'search' for inspiration, as the muses keep bringing me more than I can handle. But, you know I love the morsels I find and am so happy to be able to share them. *Hugs* to you ! ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ noles1@totcon.com |

Chase the dream, never let it die.. Without a dream your soul is denied No matter the hurt sorrow or pain A dream will always make you whole again. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Hey Marge, beautiful poem!! This rubbishy verse is an adaption from the second poem I ever wrote, hence the pathetic-ness!!! But I really loved this poem of yours, Just like I LOVE dreams!!! Love and hugs, Your Lil' Lizzie "Poetry is the true expression of my soul, it is my ultimate means of communication. It is my rainbow of delight." |
