If I Am Dreaming Please Don't Wake Me If this be a dream I see If night and mind play tricks on me Let me not from it awake But further into sleep, please, take If his whisper be unreal Let not this heart, true sorrow feel But ban me to my dreams to dwell If daylight breaks our magic spell ~ Ruth www.angelfire.com/pa/OriginalMinds/index.html |

(sigh) Such a sweet beautiful poem from your beautiful heart, Ruth! Yes, sometimes I'm not sure if I'm wide-awake or dreaming myself. Excellent poem, my friend, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton |

Ruth, Dreams are so beautiful, I know, so it must be 1000 times more wonderful when you realize it ISN'T a dream! Best wishes to you, my friend. "Where there is great love there are always miracles" -Cather "Love heals everything, and love is all there is"- Zukav |

I know I too would feel the same way - Words can't express how very happy I am for you = (and a mite jealous) and the poem is beautifully expressed too ~G~ |
