As You Stand Beside Me...Dream Follow in my footsteps through this land of broken dreams Together find the other side where we can still believe In those who truly love us for the people that we are Those who wish beside us as we wish upon the stars As you stand beside me through my madness and my fears As you put your arm around to gently dry my tears I need to say my darling that I’m glad you are with me Thank you for still standing, when in blindness I don’t see Hold me as I dream tonight, please keep me in your arms I love the feeling wrapped inside your wonder and your charm Could there be a place for us, somewhere in this world? Maybe reading by a fireplace within each other curled We can interrupt our reading as we reach out for a kiss Happiness is found in little moments just like this If dreams are meant for dreamers, would you like to dream with me? If dreams are meant for coming true, could this one ever be? If she who dies with the most toys wins, then can I have some toy boys please? |

Noah, thank you sweet friend. Your replies are always such a joy to read, you are truly a wonderful person. Don’t ever lose that wonderful heart of yours. Magnus, yes, dreams are very special aren’t they? And we need never lose them. Thank you for the kind words. Lone Wolf, I agree, we should never give up on our dreams. Life without dreams would be a poor life indeed. Sven, what you say is very true indeed. We should never stop the dreaming. Thank you for reading and commenting on this one Nancy, so glad you enjoyed this, as it always give me great pleasure to read your poetry. Kacy, I hope so too. I wish that all our dreams could come true. Often times, we do have the power to make them come true, but fear holds us back. Duncan, you know I’m always glad to see you here. Love your poetic response, it is beautiful as always. I could show you where this dream resides We could have this and more besides Take my hand, I’ll lead you there A fairytale that two can share Where dreams can be reality It’s in the heart, just follow me. If she who dies with the most toys wins, then can I have some toy boys please? |

Open your eyes and look into your mind your dream lies do not fear what you find So awaken it your dream, tenderly sought to what is writ the words of loving thought Fear not your dreams Tracey ... allow them to hold you close each night. |

Tracey - dream large! There is only one thing that ever holds one back from realizing their dreams and that is fear. I didn't follow my heart but my friend did, and she realized hers before it was too late, and I am still waiting - nah, had a happy life, but not the one I really wanted, so don't let fear stop you! Oh rambling, lol, loved the poem see - it got me thinking. ~*~ The Very Best Of The Season To You And Yours ~*~ |

Sandra, thank you…we can but dream..sometimes they really do come true JM, my muse has been kind of lazy these days…must be too much Christmas beer!!Lol. So glad you stopped in, thank you so much for your comments Jaunita, what you say is very true-something I often say myself James, I can’t think of a better gift…let’s see if Santa will deliver for us!! Vandana, thank you Karen, ah, you Queen of dreamers, so glad you liked it. I think all our dreams should come true Victoria, thank you so much Shadowed Innersense, what a beautiful piece you have written there. I really like this style on you Craig (yes, I cheated and looked back on one of your other poems. I had read a couple at work, but couldn’t respond from there. Really like what you’ve been writing Kathleen, so glad you enjoyed it Sharon, I know whereof you speak. I did the exact same thing once myself, and lived to regret it. I agree, if you have a dream, you should do all in your power to make it a reality. Fear holds us back too often from realizing our dreams. Walker, thank you, glad you stopped in Sue, nice to see you here, so glad you enjoyed the images Michael, thank you so much. Yes, it was a fun afternoon, so glad I could meet you. I just love your city and hope to visit again sometime Elizabeth, thank you for the lovely comments Thanks everyone...and all the best of the holiday season to you all If she who dies with the most toys wins, then can I have some toy boys please? |
