It is time to rest and the dream to start
They come and go, deep and far apart
Camouflaging minds, scaring hearts
They are of monsters, and plots
Some swell in oceans others bring a fall
Many are mountains so high and tall

Often riches appear, but as the eyes open
The fortunes are just forgone puzzles
Childhood return, happiness and pain
Sorrow turn into confettis of butterflies
Doves savaging wolves, bees swarming carps
Angels appearing from Atlantis on gondolas

Shakespeare directing a Clockwork Orange
Tolkein fighting with Hitler against Gandhi
Eiffel Tower made of ebony in Central Park
Martin Luther King Jr boxing Muhammad Ali
Rivers made of Coca-Cola running to the black sea
John Lennon singing 'Imagine'

Respond to my call and let the waves of my heart fill your life with the wonders of love

(big hugggsssssss) I would love to meet him more than anyone else who isn't living right now as I would love to hear him sing that song one more time! (sad sigh) This is heartwrenching, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Daniel, thank you for sharing!

May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,

I got a book to tell me what my dreams mean...I like to figure it out for myself, usually works out better
