Of The Night ~*Marge Tindal*~ Dreams are not just phantoms of the night They are the wishes within the soul of daylight visions With waking thought I yearn for you The eagerness of the night dreams you into being ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |

Marge, this is a beautiful poem. I know a lot about dreaming, and your writing is so true... great job. "We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars." -Oscar Wilde |

~Marge~ Dear, I agree totally! I am sorry I have been away for the last few days. I was out sick. You know how the hot/cold weather affects your sinuses. But I am back now, and I know I have a few days worth of catching up to do! Love ya~ Terry ~you reached inside, you touched my heart, and I am all the better for it~ Terry A. Woodson, Jr. |

Marge, I am a friend of TerryW's. He told me about passions, and told me I should check it out. He also said that I had to read a few special people's work, and yours was at the top of the list. I can see why. He was right. You are great! Trust Instinct. Instinct will keep an animal alive, but Logic can kill a man. Richard "Rickey" N. Boydstun, Jr. |

Denise~ Yep, those dreams are for everyone. Alwye~ I'm so pleased that you enjoyed it. Balladeer~ Thank you, sweetie. Roy and I would just have to agree on the 'thoughts', too. ![]() Serenity~ What a doll you are. This lady greatly appreciates you. Martie~ Sometimes I wonder if I 'dream' while I'm awake ... as I seem to spend more time in that mode. Thanks, gal. TerryW~ Hello, love. You were missed. Thanks ... and GOOD to see your smiling face. Tears~ Awwwwww ! Is he just the greatest, or what? Thank you, Rickey. Enjoy your stay with us.

Wasn't it Tennyson who wrote, "To Sleep I give my powers away."? In dream, we allow ourselves to fully live, I think, unrestrained, unrestricted, unchecked. So very real, they can be. So lovely, this gifting, Marge, and I thank you. ~ Claire Could a greater miracle take place than for us to look through each other's eyes for an instant?......Henry David Thoreau |

I loved this poem. Makes you think do you dream what you want? Sometimes subconciously I believe we do. Thanks for the inspiration and enjoyed it so. |

Marge, this is simple truth, I've often thought that about dreams, but on a sanity level I thought that maybe the brain was just trying to deal with all the images so our heads wont expload. But I like the first idea much nicer. Parker |

RoseBud~ Thank you. Well, your reasoning would give credence to the saying, 'A dream is a wish your heart makes ... when you're fast asleep.' Parker~ SMILES ! ![]() ![]() I'm sure that our dreams serve a very real purpose ... never quite thought of them as 'defusing' our heads ! Could be.
