He's just a dreamer... That's all he'll ever be. His heart and soul and mind are always on the sea. He just sits and dreams... That's all he'll ever do. Every generation has some. Dreamers are nothing new. He hasn't got much of anything. At least that's how it seems. Oh, but he has more than most for he holds tightly to his dreams. He sits on his front porch making music with the wind. He sings to the sunset of places he's never been. He sits and strums his guitar. All the people stop and sigh. They say 'There's the dreamer' and they just pass him on by. "That man has shown himself great who has never grieved in evil days and never bewailed his destiny." --Seneca |

Very nicely written... I enjoyed. Nothing wrong in dreaming... sometimes there is more reality in dreams than in our conscious lives... |

Lost in a dream world eh? Well maybe he's where it's at while we're still looking. Dreamers are'nt all necessarily hopeless maybe there is a mental block there. Regardless it was a great subject for a good poem.... |

He sings to the sunset of places he's never been. well dreaming is good. I love to set my mind free (without the use of drugs, incase anyone is wondering lol) and see where it can take me. a lovely poem, and tell him never to let go of his dreams. ------------------------ "Take nothing but pictures. Leave nothing but footprints. Kill nothing but time". Baltimore Grotto "To be nobody-but-yourself-in a world which is doing its best night and day, to make you everybody else - means to fight the hardest battle which any human being can fight; and never stop fighting." E.E Cummings. "Art is a lie which makes us realise the truth." Pablo Picasso "We Irish are too poetical to be poets, we are a nation of brilliant failures" Oscar Wilde ----- |
