When they speak of dreams
Ethereal mists hide gnarled trees
covered sporadic with Spanish moss
Pre-historic flowers drip nectars of gold
to feed hummingbirds and dragonflies
When they speak of dreams
passions of un-requited love
dance among stars
Within wisps of moonlit clouds
When they speak of dreams
Mythic gods do battle in chariots of fire
hurling comets to thwart the evil doers
spilling blood and overturning potions in caldrons
of hand hammered iron
When I speak of dreams
Old men in coveralls walk streets with no sidewalks
Sounds of guitars with only three strings
Mingle with the smell of cabbage
Boiling on wood burning stoves
If dreams are a glimpse of our separate heavens
If heaven is a return to where we began
Then in God's infinite wisdom
No longer will I have to hide my weeping
Surely I will laugh for the first time

DANG! This is such an amazing write..... the words you use are just phenomenal- each one has it's place. My favorite part of the poem has definitely got to be when you described your own dreams. It kind of breaks away from the stereotypical dream settings that are so common in poetry. It brings the subject of the poem closer, to a deeper, more intimate level-- not saying "these are their dreams", but saying "these are MY dreams"..... I especially liked the 3 stringed guitar. Nice =)
I've got to hand it to ya--- this one was excellent =) Inspired me to yak on and on (see above paragraph...lol)
God bless,
Ellen |

I can't find a comment to truly explain how I felt about this poem so I will simply say GREAT WRITE, but believe me when I say it is much more than that!
