Most my life it would seem has been given to dreams they tempt at each turn no matter my route wispers of wonders which call out to me insistent yet soft as the notes of a flute They cause me to wander a whimsical land a fortress of fantasy forged of thin air its' towering heights represent what could be in dimly lit dungeons I've wept with despair The highs and the lows of an alternate world so close that it lies but a few notes away the pen in my hand draws some indescript swirls flickering silver notes shimmer and sway The subtle swift shadings of ev'ry sweet sound brings dreams cascading within might be found all that I seek yet which remains unclear as those images speak my closed eyes are my ears Most my life it would seem has been given to dreams yet I take from them too what I would share with you |

DrMoose~ My goodness ... this is just beautiful~ 'The highs and the lows of an alternate world so close that it lies but a few notes away the pen in my hand draws some indescript swirls flickering silver notes shimmer and sway' I think I may just have a 'favorite' of yours~ Thank you for sharing~ *Hugs* ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ |

so close that it lies but a few notes away the pen in my hand draws some indescript swirls flickering silver notes shimmer and sway" I know this feeling well...I could have never described it so vividly and eloquently though. I think I'll just pop this into my library! Hugs, ~Krista ![]() Your beautiful words & creativity allow me to connect with the same in myself. |

"insistent yet soft as the notes of a flute" Yes, I also feel that is how dreams and poems float into and out of our lives. |

The subtle swift shadings of ev'ry sweet sound brings dreams cascading within might be found all that I seek yet which remains unclear as those images speak my closed eyes are my ears Oh my this is sooooooooo beautiful... *~coco~* |

What an enchanting piece of writing. You have described my dream world also, and with such charm and beauty. If she who dies with the most toys wins, then can I have some toy boys please? |

Marge , Thank you , dear one . Every once in a while something slips through , the fog clears , and something else is revealed . These are the moments that make writing worth-while to me . Doc rwood , Thank you , your use of the word " connect " seems most appropriate , as this is how I try to do the very same thing . Doc Smitten , Thanks , I'm glad you liked this . Striving to become more than what I currently am . Doc Midnitesun , Almost like gravity , the pull to create something , anything . Subtle , yet compelling . Yup . Thanks . Doc Coco , Thanks , a favorite subject . Where would we be without them ? Doc Tracey , Thank you . Trying to make them over-lap is where it gets tricky . Being a little nuts helps . Doc |
