Lyrics to a song I have created to encourage people not to hang on to their shadows but rather let them go


Poem Artwork

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wj3L91vkF94

In the river of dreams I will swim along
hoping to live on a wing and a song
gracing the moment with hope for the day
leaving behind all my sorrows, at bay;
In the river of dreams I will know I belong
to an ocean of love that will help me be
be strong...
Immersed like the dolphin I'll swim happily
gathering salt from a tasty blue sea
With the sun in my eyes I will rise (pause)
when I rise...
embracing the sunlight that glows in my eyes
In the river of dreams I will swim along
hoping to live on a wing and a song
gracing the moment with hope for the day
leaving behind all my sorrows, I'll pray;
casting the shadows away, I will stay.

I enjoyed this so much…
Somewhere where there is hope…
and sorrow is kept at bay…
Somewhere I’m sure we’d all like to be…

Best wishes,
Diana…

I find your poem very uplifting, Vienna. I can "feel" what you are sharing with your readers. Love, peace, and blessings to you,

Good topic, connecting our shadows to our sorrows — as in the darkness that follows us all around in one way or another. We could reverse that and see the shadow as indicative of sun, of light and thereby joy and sight. I especially like the lines, “to an ocean of love that will help me/be strong…” Thank you for sharing your art form ideas — they are always welcome. ~~ djl

I felt like I was floating along with you and your reverie of the sunlit day. Certainly were, casting the shadows away. You emoted just the right vibe to carry us away with you.

In contrast, I have been struggling to write a dark tale for my writers' group's next anthology… Something in the shadows.

A knotty quest, Vienna, casting away the many shadows each of us accumulate over a lifetime. Only God can accomplish that. Thanx 4 sharing. r
