Secret Dreams

in the half-mournin' of dark
I go to my illusion
waking to near longing
for the collapse of my getaway
I shan't
bury my dreams
and my secret plans
they'll turn out to be
my thoughts evermore
and down them I'll drift
in the light of my dreams
all of my wishes
for me to see
even in their pretend
again and again
it all means to me
my dreams
need not be pretty
for them to come true
for I know a secret
it's for sure that I do
and its all about dreams
and not letting go
but dreams can be a river
pulling you beneath its flow
oh stop! I fear the secret
will make my deep down low

"I go to my illusion" has for me a 'homing pigeon' kind of solidity and security. "...my secret plans" is a juicy concept, as we can imagine enjoying our own version of 'secret plans' of one flavor or another. The tone of this piece emits a kind of hope "for me to see/even in their pretend" that really shines out and I like adding this piece to the array of your writings that I have been reading. ~~ Diana

I've read somewhere that this life is a dream within a dream. Your poem sucked me into your dreamy reality and I didn't want to wake up.

Love ya!

A far-reaching poem, Jerry, don't ever stop dreaming ~
Reviewed by Lily of Lough Neagh C. Dennis-Woosley 10/3/2012
Dreams can be everything, filled with beauty
love, terror, fright, desire, secrets within
our waking moments... and if the illusion of
this dream is one that you "shant" bury and
be evermore my wonderful writer, let them
whisk you away to the beauty of the secrets
held deep within you...

"I shan't
bury my dreams
and my secret plans
they'll turn out to be
my thoughts evermore
and down them I'll drift
in the light of my dreams
all of my wishes
for me to see"

Do you know how much beauty I see in that?
Ever flowing... and see you as you sit or
recline or lay floating into it.

Thank you Jerry for once again the wonderful
visions you give us

Love and Light
Lily

I think dreams are part of letting go.
