Dreams of Gold

I stand a rivers bend in dreams
A pan filled with pecks of gleam
Swishing round the waters slosh
Spilling out the waste in wash.

It’s there I find the golden flecks
In the bottom of the pan in specks
And put them in a swag I’ve wrought
To fill a bag of dreams I’ve sort.

I work my claim through out the night
And when it’s filled and I feel right
I weigh it on a passions scale
And buy a dream on which to sail.

Elusive is this gold to find
This product of a fertile mind
It settles deep within the mud
And flows unnoticed in the blood.

But it is there, just round the bend
And you will find it in the end.

Excellent! Someday we WILL find our dreams of gold.

In my wag of swag - fool's gold
is all that I have here to hold,
for the gold in air is what I hear
and truths, though strained, hold me near

but here in cool of stream I be
searching for that harmony
and lo, behold, is Sy's gift gold
understanding in rhyme's unfold...

I adore your fertile mind.

and your poetry is my pot of gold at rainbows end of bend.

I refuse to accept that mankind is so tragically bound to the starless midnight of racism & war that the daybreak of peace can never be reality.

why does noone care
why do they just stop and stare
i just want to go unnoticed
but why does no-one see this

i stand up by the wall
no-one sees me there at all
maybe im just invisible
but the again,didnt i want this?

as i walk down the street
its true of everyone i meet
they eye me up,make me feel bad
but didnt i want this?why am i so sad?

i blend into the crowd
and dont make a sound
i think-why does no-one see?
but then again,i said let me be...

im noticed,yet im loud
im shy but so proud
im invisible,yet crudely seen
i never want to be what ive been

Seymour, I wish that I could express to you exactly how much your wonderful, delightful, dreamy, words of wisdom mean to me every day. You are such a sweetheart to everyone here, my friend. You always stay calm and compassionate in your poems and your replies. We all love you and you are such an important part of our "family of friends" here at Passions.

Thank you for being YOU.

Heart Hugs,
Ethel

(sigh) Anmidst all of those ugly blood diamonds and black cancerous caves, there is indeed pure gold, but it is not in the crust, it is deep in ourselves and in the pollen of the flowers and in the stars! (big hugggssssssss) Let us pray all can soon recognize this present truth, we all loe you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Seymour, thank you for sharing!

May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
